I close my eyes
|
And drift away
|
To a far, far better place
|
I fall asleep
|
And leave you here
|
In the twisted sheets of love
|
Oh it's been a scene
|
Since you and I
|
Have stopped talking
|
So all I do is dream
|
Of a city in the South
|
A place I'll go to
|
Adelaide
|
I'll take you with me
|
When I go down to
|
Christmas in the summertime
|
Adelaide
|
Adelaide
|
I'll take you with me
|
When I go
|
Day after day
|
You say a dollar saved
|
Is a dollar earned
|
And I
|
Count the clocks
|
In our house
|
and add up all our silence
|
Oh you've got a lock
|
And I can't find
|
The key to your heart
|
Let's take a plane
|
And leave this on the ground
|
And fly down to
|
(chorus)
|
How long has it been, baby?
|
How long has it been?
|
I close my eyes
|
And drift away
|
(chorus, repeated and fade)
|
