Colleen

There’s a man at Gypsy Corner
selling roses for a pound,
I guess that I should buy you some
and turn this wheel around.

I know that if I see you,
I can wave a dream goodbye,
for I will stay a day too long
and love I can’t deny.

Colleen
we kissed and this world fell apart,
Colleen
you came and took my foolish heart.
Colleen
with golden hair and eyes of green,
Colleen.

There’s a girl at work in Soho
selling papers in the street,
I guess that I could find out now
if she is still as sweet.

I know that if I see her,
I can wave a dream goodbye,
for I will stay a day too long
however hard I try.

Colleen
we kissed and this world fell apart,
Colleen
you came and took my foolish heart.
Colleen
with golden hair and eyes of green,
Colleen.

With golden hair,
with golden hair and eyes of green,
Colleen.
