Last night I dreamed I heard you calling
And you were calling out my name
And I fear that you are falling
Lost and lonely in the rain

I won’t wait until the rain stops falling
I won’t wait until the stars come out
I’ll come running when i hear you calling
I’ll be here waiting when the sun goes down

Why do I cry each time I see you?
Why do I sigh each time I leave you?
Why do I need something more from you?
Never enough, leaves my heart burning

She came a runnin’ on down the stairs
Combin’ back her long yellow hair
And her cheeks were as red as a rose
As a rose, as a rose
And her cheeks were as red as a rose

Well I ain’t got no use
For your red apple juice
And I’m not gonna be treated this way
This a way this a way
And I’m not gonna be treated this way

I see you sitting in the shade
Counting every dime I’ve made
I’m so broke and I’m hungry too
Hungry too, hungry too
I’m so broke and I’m hungry too
(repeat first verse)

Oh it feels like it’s never ending
This road with all its twists and turns
Oh it feels like it’s never ending
Like it’s under some kinda curse
Well the lights turned red and I heard your voice calling
(It’s time to turn the other way)
And the night sky covered every sight and sound
(Didn’t you see the sign)
Well your heart fell to the ground
Feeling lost and never found
Wondering if you’ll ever make it back
On this long road
Long road
Long road
And I’m travelling by the light of the moon
(X 4)

[Chorus:]

She is watching the detectives.
“ooh, he’s so cute!”
She is watching the detectives
when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot.

They beat him up until the teardrops start,
but he can’t be wounded ’cause he’s got no heart.
Long shot of that jumping sign,
Visible shivers running down my spine.
Cut the baby taking off her clothes.
Close-up of the sign that says,”We never close”
You snatch a tune, you a match a cigarette,
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet.
I don’t know how much more of this I can take.
She’s filing her nails while they’re dragging the lake.

[Chorus]

You think you’re alone until you realize you’re in it.
Now fear is here to stay. Love is here for a visit.
They call it instant justice when it’s past the legal limit.
Someone’s scratching at the window. I wonder who is it?
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter’s disappearance.
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay,
it only took my little fingers to blow you away.

Just like watching the detectives.
Don’t get cute!”
It’s just like watching the detectives.
I get so angry when the teardrops start,
but he can’t be wounded ’cause he’s got no heart.
Watching the detectives.
It’s just like watching the detectives.

Oh it’s so hard to keep believing
When you have nothing to keep you strong
You wave goodbye to a thousand lights
Turn around and the crowd is gone
The fire is burning and the hands they are turning
On the clock at the end of the day
Hold on Hold on

Good things will come your way
If you find yourself drifting
And your heart needs lifting
When the hours seem to turn into days
Hold on hold on
Good things will come your way
Hold on hold on
Good things will come your way

Moonbeams will surround you and to dreamland you will go
Wind chimes serenade you, golden fairies all aglow
Hush-a-bye my baby, diamonds fill the sky above
I’ll be watching over you

Sweet dreams my darling
Sleep peacefully
Sweet dreams my darling
I’ll be watching over you

Raindrops on the rooftop
Somewhere in the darkness a star will shine for you
I’ll be watching over you

Sweet dreams my darling
Sleep peacefully
Sweet dreams my darling
I’ll be watching over you
I’ll be watching over you
I’ll be watching over you

oOO oOO oOO
When will I see you again?
oOO oOO oOO

I just want to hear you
I wanna be near you
When will I see you again?
I just wanna show you
How much I adore you
When will I see you again?

oOO oOO oOO
When will I see you again?
oOO oOO oOO

I didn’t think that you’d go
And that just show how little I know (x 2)
I didn’t ask you to stay
And now I’m left here feeling this way
I didn’t think that you’d go
And that just shows..
Don’t wanna be lonely
I think of you only
When will I see you again?

I’m so lost without you
I’m crazy about you
When will I see you again?

oOO oOO oOO
When will I see you again?
oOO oOO oOO

I didn’t think that you’d go
And that just show how little I know (x 2)
I didn’t ask you to stay
And now I’m left here feeling this way
I didn’t think that you’d go
And that just shows

After all that has been said and done
I won’t ask you where you’re going
Don’t keep in touch, I don’t miss you much
Except sometimes early in the morning

Now use your silver tongue once more
There’s one thing that I’d like to know
Did you ever believe the lies that you told
Did you earn the fool’s gold that you gave me

I forgive you wanting to be free
I realize you long to wander
And I sympathize with your roving eyes
I just can’t forgive your bad manners

Now use your silver tongue once more
There’s one thing that I’d like to know
Did you ever believe the lies that you told
Did you earn the fool’s gold that you gave me

Mama gonna water that gravy down
Try to make enough to go around
With five mouths to feed and papa in the ground
Mama gonna water that gravy down
Mmm mmm mmm
Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot X 2

So thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don’t ask for more, savour every drop
‘Cause there’s nothing more coming from the old cook pot

So thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don’t ask for more, savour every drop
‘Cause there’s nothing coming out, nothing coming out

Oh Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot
Pray to the maker make the hunger stop
Then ask a little more than what we got
Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot
Mmm mmm mmm
Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot X 2

Oh Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot
Pray to the maker make the hunger stop
Then ask a little more than what we got
Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot

So thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don’t ask for more, savour every drop
‘Cause there’s nothing more coming from the old cook pot

So thank the lord and sit up straight
Mind your manners and clean your plate
Don’t ask for more, savour every drop
‘Cause there’s nothing coming out, nothing coming out
Oh Mama gonna bargain with the old cook pot
Pray to the maker make the hunger stop
Then ask a little more than what we got
Mama gonna bargain with the ol cook pot

Farewell, Farewell
To a true inspiration, who put up a good fight
Farewell, Farewell
May colourful rainbows light up your way
Farewell
Here’s to you

Farewell, Farewell
May you breathe freely and like a bird soar
Farewell, Farewell
To a beautiful flower who’ll blossom once more
Farewell
Here’s to you

I’ve kissed many lips and I’ve held a hand or two
I’ve found love a couple of times
But no-one compares to you
And my heart can’t help skipping a beat
When you’re knocking at my door
When I’m by your side
I couldn’t ask for more

So come with me and sit with me under the pale moonlight
And we will hold each other close as the stars are shining bright
Forget about your worries and your cares the whole night through
Come a little closer and I’ll whisper I love you

I’ve cried many tears and I’ve broken many hearts
But when it comes to loving you oh no-one can tear us apart
I can’t think of anything that pleases me much more
Than when I’m by your side I couldn’t ask for more

INSTRUMENTAL

So come with me and sit with me under the pale moonlight
And we will hold each other close as the stars are shining bright
Forget about your worries and your cares the whole night through
Come a little closer and I’ll whisper I love you

I’ve cried many tears and I’ve broken many hearts
But when it comes to loving you oh no-one can tear us apart
I can’t think of anything that pleases me much more
Than when I’m by your side I couldn’t ask for more
