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. 'Cause Your mother passed away it was a rainy day And I didn't mean to bother you anymore Your mother wished: Come visit your fathers grave, Dana Your father disowned you because you have sinned But he did forgive you in condition he was in And I - 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 Dana was here Little Dana O'Hara decided one day To travel away, far away No, you cannot 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 aim in, Love is not the thing I feel now 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 diary's pages are full of thee Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, How I wish that Dana was here Little Dana O'Hara decided one day To travel away, far away Little O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, How I wish that Dana was here Little Dana O'Hara decided one day To travel away, far away Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, How I wish that Dana was here Little Dana O'Hara decided one day To travel away, far away
