Tekst piosenki
Once upon a midnight dearie
I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape that memory
Of a phone call and what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies
Yeah, humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
And as we seek so shall we find
And when we're feeling older we'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Of what will be of you and me
I still can see things hopefully
[Chorus]
But you, why you want to give me the runaround?
Is it a surefire way to speed things up
When all it ever does is slow me down
You've shaken me and my confidence
About a great many things
But I've been there and I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Saying hey babe, let's keep in touch
Hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch
I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And sooner or later we'll be unable to tell
What's yours and mine
The fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
[Chorus]
A la la bamba dear
This is the pilot speaking
And I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
You see my banner may be worn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I will drink in and always be full
Yeah, I will drink in and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea
I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I've still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right, okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
[Chorus](x2)
