meet me in verona

Sally Oldfield

You call me, you say: Meet me in Verona
Couldn t we handle this on the phone?
You tell me, oh, you can t stand being alone
I don t care, see, I ve grown

Oh, there was a time under the Linden trees
I d wait for you shaking at the knees
Saying: Take me tonight! The time is right!
Oh, the time has flown, don t know where it s gone
Like a fairy tale, crumpled and torn
Oh, somewhere my life has gone with the wind
I can hear you crying in the night
But my heart has turned to stone
You call me, you say: Meet me in Verona
It s too cold. Summer s gone
You tell me, oh, you changed your mind
It s too late, you were blind

Oh, there was a time under the Linden trees
I d wait for you shaking at the knees
Saying: Take me tonight! The time is right!
Oh, the time has flown, don t know where it s gone
Like a fairy tale, crumpled and torn
Oh, somewhere my life has gone with the wind
I can hear you crying in the night
But my heart has turned to stone

Oh, there was a time under the Linden trees
I d wait for you shaking at the knees
Saying: Take me tonight! The time is right!
Oh, the time has flown, don t know where it s gone
Like a fairy tale, crumpled and torn
Oh, somewhere my life has gone with the wind
I can hear you crying in the night
But my heart has turned to stone

You call me, you say: Meet me in Verona
