[Verse 1]

Hey, Rose, I don't wanna go outside

I wanna see the world only through your eyes

Hey, Rose, can I ever make you stay?

It's been a long life when everybody goes away



[Chorus]

So won't you be my hole in the sky

Be my telephone line

I don't know if you can hear me now

Now that the power's out



[Verse 2]

Hey, Rose, I never meant you make you cry

I guess I crossed a line just to guarantee goodbye

And, hey, Rose, I never meant to bring you down

It's got me hanging around all the wrong parts of town



[Chorus]

So won't you be my hole in the sky

Be my telephone line

I don't know if you can hear me now

Now that the power's out

Now that the power's out



[Bridge]

So if you hold on, hold on to me

Just like I'll hold on, hold on to you



[Chorus]

So won't you be my hole in the sky

Be my telephone line

I don't know if you can hear me now

Now that the power's out

Now that the power's out



[Bridge]

So if you hold on, hold on to me

Just like I'll hold on, hold on to you
