My Dear

Lyrics：Dewey Bunnell Music：Dewey Bunnell

Here in the dawn

As I walk through this dream

As I have done since ages now gone

Shall I read you the letter

They sent postmarked from somewhere out here

It's in Latin, I think, I don't know

Can you help me, my dear

Please, can you help me, my dear

Near to their bed (they never sleep)

They sit sipping their tea, watch the sea

Move the sand through their heads (sit in their chairs by the bay)

Did I show you the marks on the wall

Left by captains now dead (house out on the cove)

They fell fighting for peace in their lives

Or so it is said (still nobody seems to be here)

Please, can you help me, my dear

Please, can you help me, my dear

You can't miss it

A blue forest on a green sky

You must risk it

Don't ignore us if you want us to

If we want us to survive

Where will I be (can't you help me to find my way)

After watching them walking the pier

At the mouth of the sea (I've been lost for so long)

They're in love with the news

And don't show if they're living in fear (still nobody seems to be here)

They eat ice cream alone

Watch the waves at the end of the pier (ah, nobody seems to hear)

Please, can you help me, my dear

Please, can you help me, my dear
