Paula

Paula, there's a sadness in your eyes

I've seen it grow as you come here from time to time

All laughter and jokes aside, Paula, I know

There's trouble in your heart, it shows

Paula, someone told me about your dad

How he's the only one you've ever had

And he's slipping into shadows now, they say

He doesn't even recognize your face

And the rain is falling on a broken land

Falling, falling like there ain't no end

I saw the moon last night, hanging upside down

And I don't think I'll see you for a long, long time

The house is empty, everything is gone

Sold to neighbors, taken to be pawned

You've run around the world, your head all clogged

And trouble follows like a faithful dog

And the rain is falling on a broken land

Falling, falling like there ain't no end

I saw the moon last night, hanging upside down

And I don't think I'll see you for a long, long time

Hmm, hmm-mm-mm...

Hmm, hmm-mm-mm...

Hmm, hmm-mm-mm...

Paula, if I don't see you tomorrow

Who do I call to let them know

How I wanna hold you in my arms?

But even when you're here, you're gone

And the rain is falling on a broken land

Falling, falling like there ain't no end

I saw the moon last night, hanging upside down

And I don't think I'll see you for a long, long time
