Gonna start dressing Finer things Maybe just nothing Maybe just a dream You are gonna find him one day knockin¹ at your door He¹s not the hero any more He says baby don¹t you want me in your life You tell him what is wrong, not right Don¹t She La Don¹t she look happy Don¹t She La Don¹t she look happy Gonna start living Fantasy Maybe just nothing Maybe just a dream Fire in the blue sky when he hits you in the mouth This the war and not the warning He says baby I love you won¹t you stay You say good-bye to him too late Don¹t She La Don¹t she look happy Don¹t She La Don¹t she look happy Don¹t she look happy now That he¹s gone away from here He¹s gone away he died they say an awful way It was attack of the heart You have started something big By cuttin¹ through the man There was a sign you heard a calling He says baby I don¹t want to die today You say so long man it¹s too late
