Brian Fallon - Rosemary Lyrics






I heard you say you don't feel right
Somethin' must've changed inside
She said, "I still love the bands and the boy down the street
But everybody else gives me the creeps"

And there's a hole in you now
Like the windshield was taken out
And everybody's hurt, and mine ain't the worst
But it's mine and I'm feelin' it now

Sometimes I think it's haunted inside this house

And I hear ya cryin' over the phone
"Where have all the good times gone?"
Downing the glass of shouting matches
Lost in the songs they don't write anymore

(Hey hey hey!) It's all right, I ain't tryin' to bring you down tonight
(Hey hey hey!) "Oh my, my, my," she says, "I don't mind, I'm just so tired of the empty sheets I sleep beside"

Heard you say it's gone all wrong, since when did the days and the nights get so long?
She said, "I still miss the scene and the dying breed, but now I'd settle for some company
And there were things that I did, just so I could feel anything
But somewhere along, something went off, and I woke up with blood on my lips
And yeah, and there were nights I just did whatever I liked..."

And now I hear ya cryin' over the phone
"Where have all the good times gone?"
Downing the glass of shouting matches
Lost in the songs they don't write anymore

But hey hey hey, it's all right, I ain't tryin' to bring you down tonight
"Oh my,my, my," she said, "I don't mind, I'm just so tired of the empty sheets I sleep beside"

And now I hear ya cryin' over the phone
"Where have all the good times gone?"
Downing the glass of shouting matches
Lost in the songs you don't write anymore

But hey! - hey! - hey!
It's all right, I ain't tryin' to bring you down tonight
And "oh my, my, my," she said, "I don't mind
Cause maybe someday they're gonna love me back to life"

(See my baby, sweet Rosemary)
My name is Rosemary
(See my baby, sweet Rosemary)
You'd be lucky to meet me
(See my baby, sweet Rosemary)
My name is Rosemary
(See my baby, sweet Rosemary)
Yeah, you'd be lucky if you get to hold me

My name is Rosemary, and you'd be lucky to meet me

  1. P.... M....

    This version is so unbelievably perfect. Wow. It works so much better like this. Incredible!

  2. N.... G....

    That version should have been on the album. Producer need put down

  3. n.... l....

    ❤💜❤💜❤💜❤💜❤

  4. A.... G....

    So I didn't know, but I'm here on the day this video turns 3! What a nice coincidence

  5. L.... G....

    He's growing on me for sure. It's so weird how you feel with his music! You feel so desperate to love but at the same time you are terrified of bringing them down. Also, that's a beautiful guitar

  6. G.... ....

    I love how Brian Fallon's ability to make an old song feel like a completely new one.

  7. V.... C....

    If Legend had a definitio of a person........

  8. J.... ....

    This song reminds me so much of a wonderful woman I dated a couple of years ago. She was a little older than me, and for years she'd been alone, watching as all of her friends and family found relationships, got married, had kids, and yet she couldn't find anyone to love her the way she deserved, and how that weighed on her psyche, and her self-worth. And even though it didn't work out--I loved her but we were at different stages in life--I really was lucky to meet her, and lucky that I got to hold her.

  9. T.... S....

    goose bumps...

  10. K.... D....

    I love you.

  11. M.... M....

    i am sorry to say it but he doesn't hit a note :(

    M.... M....

    please read here https://www.reddit.com/r/TheGaslightAnthem/comments/3uc1o1/i_cant_be_the_only_one_who_thinks_that_brian/?st=jdj7siqo&sh=9e8215d9. I totally agree with them

    M.... M....

    While I wont argue with you contention about him not hitting right cords or notes I will fervently disagree with your opinion that this song sucks.
    IMHO the way a song makes you feel is far more important than the technical aspects.
    I'm sure you understand that live performances almost never sound like the studio versions something to be quite honest I'm quite happy about.
    Your comments reminds me a lot like those who complain about a cover of a song not sounding like the original, they're not supposed to. It's another artist take on the song. If you want to hear it done just like the original then listen to the original. If you dislike the live version then just listen to the studio version.
    Brian Fallon usually offers numerous renditions of his music from performing with a full band to just him on his piano or guitar, on most occasions he is able to pull it off.. I look at this as a huge plus.

    M.... M....

    1oldgoat this song on the record is my favourite. If you read the link yiu can see my Point. I am not so good with English but in the link is perfecty written. It s not a matter of different version. This is a different version because he cannot play it, not because he wants to chance it. He simply is not that good at playing guitar

    M.... M....

    All I have to say Gabriel is please don't watch any of the Count Basie video's You might blow a gasket. Fallon misses the notes, is all over the place on tempo and mediocre on the piano but strangely I love those videos.
    My appreciation of music is based on how it makes me feel far more than the technical aspects.
    I wont trash Fallon personally but some of the stuff being posted truly sucks and that assessment applies across the board.
    Don't take anything I say to you personally you are stating your opinion and I'm stating mine. Doesn't mean either of us are right or wrong. You have a good night and we'll speak again later on

    M.... M....

    1oldgoat You have no idea what you’re talking about Bob Dylan just had a pretty rough voice but he hit every note and his cords were logical you’re obviously not a musician you have no idea

  12. V.... L....

    The voice of our generation! Simply amazing.

  13. N.... ....

    How many other artists can you youtube and find pages and pages of live sessions

  14. �.... T....

    the raspy, crackly sound in his voice is something i can never get out. Absolutely beautiful

  15. P.... Q....

    an absolute hero

  16. M.... T....

    How... I'm a decent lyricist but how does he do this

    M.... T....

    Jackson!

    M.... T....

    Golden comment hahaha

    M.... T....

    Good question. He's been doing it since what... 2003?

    I miss Gaslight...

    M.... T....

    Earlier if you count his previous smaller bands/solo stuff from his teens/earlier 20's that found it's way onto the internet by now (Bands being Surrogate McKenzie, Amping Copper, This Charming Man, Cincinnati Rail Tie)

  17. b.... ....

    This is my favourite song on the album. I wish he'd play it live!! <3

    b.... ....

    Damn you're lucky, wish he came to London more, would definitely see him several times

    b.... ....

    +Birdy Boy He seems to play rare songs overseas, so you guys luck out that way 👍🏻😀

    b.... ....

    True, I've noticed..Especially with The Gaslight Anthem

    b.... ....

    He's played it in the UK on both this solo tours!

    b.... ....

    James Pugh Thankfully, he added it to his tour and the last 10 shows I've seen, it was played! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  18. p.... ....

    Beautiful. What a maestro!

  19. B.... ....

    That's one huge microphone...
    Awesome version! One of the best songs on the record!

  20. J.... M....
