The house was filling up
Like it was New Year
With friends of mine
I`ve never met before
And in among
The singing and drinking
I saw you standing
Silent by the door
And in your eyes
I see your heart
Is breaking
Yes in your eyes
I`m still your secret boy
For we were young
And we were only playing
We thought we were immune
Inside our joy
Rosanne
Rosanne
You married into money
And to trouble
Trying to escape
This world we knew
Where everything`s decide
By your station
You wanted to believe
It wasn`t true
And then I heard the whispers
And the stories
Oh how your public
a***ysed your pain
It seems to me we all
Derive some pleasure
From watching someone
Rise then fall again
Rosanne
Rosanne
I heard about the others
That you went through
You cannot keep a secret
In this town
Where everyone is friendly
To your face but
Don`t challenge the laws
That they lay down
A woman on her own
Can be a victim
A woman on her own
Can always cry
It looks to me that you
Could use a friend now
The night has certain needs
To satisfy
Rosanne
Rosanne
Rosanne
Rosanne
Is crying
Like it was New Year
With friends of mine
I`ve never met before
And in among
The singing and drinking
I saw you standing
Silent by the door
And in your eyes
I see your heart
Is breaking
Yes in your eyes
I`m still your secret boy
For we were young
And we were only playing
We thought we were immune
Inside our joy
