Peter White - Prologue

Remember when times were good for people like us?
I mean it's good now, but not like back then
We used to tear the roof off
Eat the laughter with our bare hands
And who even knew there was a tomorrow morning?

The life we live now, we take it, we eat it
And spice every bite we chew with memory
Nothing tastes as good as memory
No choices, no pain
Just the good stuff
M-m-m good

That's what I'm gonna say to my girl
Me and little Rosie Cachini,
The greatest love that never was
Up in that northern Ontario town they call
Sault Ste. Marie

What could have been, what would have been
What should have been and never was

I'd been living and working in Toronto for years
When a Sault buddy told me that the famous
Rosie was back in town

I sat perfectly still for one minute
Then I got in my car and started to drive
