DARLA

Words and Music by Mark Edwards

. . Seems like I met you, such a long time ago,

A haunting reminder, of a time I let go.

But can I ever borrow those days over again?

And can you ever live through, a place you’ve already been

Chorus:

Darla,...Darla

I’ve been waiting here so long

But Darla, oh, Darla

When I look will you be gone

. . . Remember all the daydreams, How they've long since disappeared,

All the wonders of tomorrow, That have passed among the years

Girl, I wish that I could show you, How I need you today

But every moment that I'm near you, I just turn and run away.

(Chorus)

(Instrumental)

Still the night's there to greet me, and the dreams never end

Seems I've tried too many times now, to keep from trying again.

(Chorus)
