Valotte

Sitting on the doorstep of the house i can't afford,
I can feel you there
Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard
To love you even though you nearly lost my heart
How can i explain the meaning of our love?
It fits so tight, closer than a glove
Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong?
'cause i've felt it all along

I can see your face in the mirrors of my mind
Will you still be there?
We're really not so clever as we seem to think we are
We've always got our troubles so we solve them in the bar
As the days go by, we seem to drift apart
If i could only find a way to keep hold of your heart

Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong?
'cause i've felt it all along

Sitting in the valley as i watch the sun go down
I can see you there.
Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard
To love you even though you nearly lost my heart
When will we know when the change is gonna come?
I've got a good feeling and it's coming from the sun

Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong
We'll stick together 'cause we're strong

You say you've got problems
I've got them myself
But you depend on me to help you out
Please, let me be
Some people tell me you're moving away
I've been assured that you're going to stay...

So please let me be
Please let me be

Some people tell me you're moving away
I've been assured that you're going to stay...

So please let me be
Please let me be

Jesse's in a new low rider outside frank's drive-in
He's there with juanita and the gang but nodding out again
Jesse you're a fool to yourself
'cause you won't stop
You can't take it with you
Jesse you're losing yourself
Ooh....don't be a fool again
There may not be a next time
Ooh....don't be a fool again...jesse

Jesse, there's a whole world out there
That you can't ignore
But nickel bags and chrome-lined cars
Is that all that you are?
Jesse, you can't get their respect if you don't stop
You don't even want to
Jesse, you're losing yourself

Ooh....don't be a fool again
There may not be a next time
Ooh....don't be a fool again...jesse

You say you love me, but i think you're wrong
We've had times in the past when we weren't so strong
Well, i don't know which way to turn
And i don't know which way to turn
The times have changed, i can read your face
There's been so many lies and no tears with your cries
Well i don't know which way to turn
And i don't know which way to turn

I've been ashamed for so many years
I don't know how to cope when you bring out the tears
And i don't know which way to turn
'cause i don't know which end to burn

I love you more than a man could say
We've been through a lot
Gone our sep'rate ways
'cause i don't know which way to turn
And i don't know which way to turn

I said i love you, well, i do
I don't know whether i'm wrong or whether i'm right
Or which way to turn
And i don't know which way to turn

Ever since you've been leaving me
I've been wanting to cry
Now i know how it feels for you
I've been wanting to die
But it's much too late for goodbyes
Yes it's much too late for goodbyes
Time has gone since i've been with you
We've been starting to die
Now it seems you don't care for me
And i don't understand why
But it's much too late for goodbyes
Yes it's much too late for goodbyes

Ever since you've been far away
I've been wanting to fly
Now i know what you meant to me
I'm the one who should cry
And it's much too late for goodbyes
Yes it's much too late for goodbyes

Ever since you've been leaving me
I've been wanting to cry
Now i know how it feels for you
I've been wanting to die
But it's much too late for goodbyes
Yes it's much too late for goodbyes

Ooh... ah.....

Dit dit dit dit doo
