dana, my darling, i'm writing to you.
cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
and i don't want to bother you anymore,
i used to hope you'd come back
but not anymore dana.
my eyes might have betrayed me, but i have seen
your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
and i think my heart just cannot handle that
dana, my darling, would be so bad.
dana my darling i'm writing to you
your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
and i didn't mean to bother you anymore
your mother wished: come visit your faters grave, dana
your father disowned you because you have sinned
but he did forgive you in condition he was in
and i hope you won't do those things anymore
dana my darling i'm waiting for
dana o'hara oh, dana my dear,
how i wish that my dana was here
little dana o'hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway
no, you can't surprise me anymore
i have seen it all before
but it seems i cannot let you go
anyhow, dana, dana, dana, dana
and i think that i told you, i'd wait for you forever
now i know someone else's holding you,
so, for the first time in my life - i must lie
lie's a sin, mess that i am in,
love is not the thing i feel know
i promise you: i won't write again 'til the sun sets
behind your grave
dana, oh, dana i'm writing to you, i heard you passed
away it was a beautiful day
i'm old and i feel time will come for me, my diarys
pages are full of thee
dana o'hara oh, dana my dear,
how i wish that my dana was here
little dana o'hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway
