Roxanne Songtext
von Julia Ecklar

The sparrows′ wings beat out your name.
My heart beats out the very same, Roxanne.
Two sounds etched bright upon my soul, Roxanne.
I fear the words that can't express
The limits of your loveliness,
The limitless amazement that is you.


Nighttime is a friend to me —
It hides my face and helps me see, Roxanne,
What elegance dares bear the name Roxanne.
I′m drunken by the sight of you,
The heights my love has swept me to.
I'd drown in you and die a happy man.

This moment is my very life,
Your name a sweet and killing knife, Roxanne.
I know you almost love me, too, Roxanne.
So think that you're with me tonight,
And let me dream of all that might
Have just been mine if I had dared, Roxanne.
