Song lyrics

Dana, my darling,
I'm writing to you
Cause your father passed away,
It was a beautiful day
And I don't want to bother you anymore,
I used to hope you'd come back
But not anymore, Dana

My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that,
Dana, my darling, would be so bad

Dana, my darling,
I'm writing to you,
Your mother passed away,
It was a really rainy day
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore,
Your mother wished:
Come visit your fathers' grave, Dana

Your father disowned you
Because you have sinned,
But he did forgive you
In condition he was in
And I hope you won't do
Those things anymore,
Dana, my darling,
I'm waiting for

Dana O'Hara oh,
Dana, my dear,
How I wish
That my Dana was here,
Little Dana O'Hara
Decided one day
To travel away,
Far away
No you can't surprise me anymore,
I have seen it all before
But it seems I cannot let you go
Anyhow, Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana

And I think that I told you,
I'd wait for you forever,
Now I know
Someone else's holding you,
So for the first time in my life
I must lie,
Lie's a sin,
Mess that I am in,
Love is not the thing
I feel I know
I promise you I won't write again
'Til the sun sets behind your grave

Dana, oh, Dana
I'm writing to you,
I heard you passed away,
It was a beautiful day,
I'm old and I feel
Time will come for me,
My diaries pages are full of thee

Dana O'Hara oh,
Dana, my dear,
How I wish
That my Dana was here,
Little Dana O'Hara
Decided one day
To travel away,
Far away
