Lyrics
Rosaline, born of the country
Brightened by the sea
I believe the spirits are watching
You better listen ‘fore you speak
Rosaline, I’d give anything
To see you through this dream
Rosaline, laughing and spinning
From Santa Fe to Spain
Over the hills, the mountains and meadows
And across the windswept plains
Rosaline, I’d give anything
To see your smiling face
Rosaline, I ran the good race
Now I sail on toward the sun
I’ve heard tell a new war is coming
You better choose which side you’re on
Rosaline, I’d give anything
To keep you safe from harm

In this dream, you are a benevolent glongingston named Scorsby, writing a short statement on behalf of your imaginary alt-country friend “John King Cave" in your car outside the Flying Star parking lot. You are moved by the sight of a pigeon perched on a lamp post. Time appears to pass. Another pigeon joins it. Soon they both fly away. What beautiful light, you say to yourself.
