Maureen

(album: Life For The Taking - 1978)

I wanna tell everybody a story 'bout
A lucky young man who fell in love
And a change in mood
Can happen to you

Oh, it seemed that late every night
I would have the same dream
About a girl, just right
I mean one I would love for the rest of my life
And then one day this girl from my dreams
Came walking my way

Not Michelle, not Nadine, no, no
She smiled as she told me
Her name was Maureen

Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

Till that day, my life was in pieces
What more can I say
Oh, oh
In a world now
I'm going to bed early just to see
That damn girl

Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

Sleepy as I was, I was
Dreaming life away
Now my life is full of joy
Lucky man, oh lucky man, I am
I thank that old sandman, my dreams came true
