V1.
I would gladly mind my manners if you'll hold me in esteem,
And I think that in these pages, there are things you'd like to read
About love and all the crazy things it'll make a person do.

Well, it seems the evening's over and I need to catch a ride,
But I hope the things we spoke of start to eat you up inside.
Don't you sleep 'til you feel okay.

Now I'm gonna go my way, but my hands are clean today.
But for now, I gotta say...
____________

CHORUS:
Goodnight, Rosa. La da da de da. (x3)
Rosa remember me.
____________

V2.
Well, the math is really simple when you know you have a need,
And you shouldn't stop for something that you know can't make you free.
This is a choice that separates your life.

It'll push you to your edges. You'll wanna just unwind.
But you know, you seek, you find.
____________

CHORUS.
