Lyrics

In my heart, if that is where one feels, I shall feel
Your head lying back, sending peels
Of laughter, to ring the world like a bell
I ring to call you here to me
Telephone, telephone, please end my blues
When I'm alone if it can be done
You know that I for one would be so very grateful
Is that a horse, whose footsteps I hear approaching on the run
From some strange unknown danger, or just my heart
Beating so noisily? One never really knows
Till it's far too late to see
Better late than never
Oh Louise, won't you please
Tie my running heart, please tie it to your gate
It's the sun we wait for in the morning
And the moon
We long to see setting in the evening when night lies ahead
And day is through
I'll spend the night with you instead
