Cover art for Rosanna lyrics by Toto

It's about Rosanna Arquette. And that's it.

@DanVitaleRocks Actually, no. While Steve Porcaro dated Rosanna, the songwriter, David Paich, needed a female name for a song, and thought Rosanna was a cute name. Rosanna and Steve were at David's home during the writing process.

But, Rosanna thought it was about her. But Toto only borrowed her first name!

Rosanna went on to marry James Newton Howard, who worked with Toto regularly assisting with production. Their marriage only lasted about a year.
