Dora, in the middle of the night
Will you wait for me
Til the morning sun shines bright?
For it's all a dream
And it's only make believe
Dora, oh it hurts to hear you say
You're all alone
And the pain won't go away
But it's all a dream
And it's only make believe
Listening through the hours of the day
Waiting for the night to end
Thinking, though it's not for me to say
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
Forget the lies they whisper in your ear
And every superstitious word you hear
Dora, though the truth is hard to face
And the fantasy
Is not easy to replace
It's all a dream
And it's only make believe
Oh, I keep thinking
Of the words I shouldn't say
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
And every doubt they whisper in your ear
And all the half-forgotten past you fear
One day will fade away and disappear...
Dora, in the middle of the night
Do you wait for me
Where the morning sun shines bright?
Is it all a dream?
Is it only make believe?
Is it all a thread
Of the tangled web you weave
Is it all a dream?
Is it only make believe?
