Yvonne's The One

(album: Press To Play - 1986)

Yvonne's the one I've been counting on
She said, "Hold on. You're not the only one."
And so I said, "So long, Yvonne."

When I first saw Yvonne, volcanoes erupted
And her laughter flowed into my life
She seemed all right, nothing wrong
Everything about her was so strong
But I know no one's gonna keep us apart

Yvonne's the one I've been counting on
She said, "Hold on. You're not the only one."
And so I said, "So long, Yvonne."

When I saw her again, I was caught in a landslide
But I didn't dare let it show
Her ruby lips were teasing me
But jealousy would never let us be
So always gonna keep us apart

She never knew how much I loved her
I never got to tell her
We never found a way to say farewell
Yvonne

Yvonne

When I last saw Yvonne, she was covered in roses
But sadness had ended her life
She walked so tall, she looked so tan
Everything about her was so grand
But what you get is not what you see
So long, Yvonne, you're not fooling me

Yvonne, Yvonne's the one I've been counting on
She said, "Hold on. You're not the only one."
And so I said, "So long, Yvonne."

Yvonne, Yvonne's the one I've been counting on
She said, "Hold on. You're not the only one."
And so I said, "So long, Yvonne."

So long, Yvonne
