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. 
'Cause Your mother passed away it was a 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 - 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 Dana was here 
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day 
To travel away, far away 
 
No, you cannot 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 aim in, 
Love is not the thing I feel now 
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 diary's pages are full of thee 
 
Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, 
How I wish that Dana was here 
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day 
To travel away, far away 
 
Little O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, 
How I wish that Dana was here 
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day 
To travel away, far away 
 
Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, 
How I wish that Dana was here 
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day 
To travel away, far away
