Bella Dover

Bella Dover

1.  Runaway Bella Dover

flowers in your hair

sunshine in that smile

wild to take a dare

oh well/ fair thee well

2.  Busking Bella Dover,

lost in your own song

"We're going up the country,

d'you want to come along?"

Three days of fun, rain and mud,

did it open up your mind?  Dancing

naked in the forest, high

on acid, weed and wine.

Oh well/ Fair thee well

repeat

3.  Dancing Bella Dover

you don't want to let it go

You were tripping three months later,

amphetamines, beer and blow,

at a concert on a race track,

where you came to dance and play

Those two guys, they're not dancing. 

they've had their eyes on you all day

 oh well / Fair thee well

repeat

4. "Sad eyed Bella Dover,"

sing the angels up ahead,

"your dancing days are over,

you're dancing with the dead."

What happened under the stage that night,

it's nothing you would say.

But there's a darkness in your song 

that'll never go away.  

 Oh well/ fair thee well

        fair thee well
