Lyrics
SHE WAS STANDING BY THE GATEHOUSE WITH A FACE LIKE NORMA JEAN
SHE WAS DANCING IN THE GARDEN WITH A THOUGHT
THEN SHE SAW ME IN THE WINDOW AND WAS GONE WITHOUT A TRACE
BUT I FELT HER IN THE AIR AND ALL AROUND
SO I FOLLOWED THROUGH THE ARBOUR AND ALONG THE GARDEN PATH
AND I FOUND HER ON THE BANK BESIDE A STREAM
I WAS CAPTURED BY HER BEAUTY DAZZLED BY HER GRACE
AND I WATCHED HER AS SHE FLOATED OUT TO SEE
SWEET ADELINE KISS ME ONE MORE TIME
BEFORE YOU GO AND LEAVE ME ALL ALONE
WIPE AWAY THAT TEAR ?COS I?LL BE WAITING HERE
WAITING FOR THE WORLD TO SEND YOU HOME
SHE CAME BACK IN THE SUMMER SHE WAS FLOATING LIKE A CLOUD
SHE JUST DRIFTED THROUGH THE CITY GLANCING DOWN
LOOKING LIKE AN ANGEL WAVING TO THE CROWD
THEN SHE SAW ME AND SHE SLOWLY SLIPPED AWAY
AND LIKE BEFORE I FOLLOWED TO A FOREST BY A FIELD
AND I SAW HER FLOATING HIGH ABOVE THE CLOUDS
AND I SAW THE GIANT REDWOODS CRYING IN THE BREEZE
THEN I SAW A FLASH OF LIGHT AND SHE WAS GONE
SWEET ADELINE KISS ME ONE MORE TIME
BEFORE YOU GO AND LEAVE ME ALL ALONE
WIPE AWAY THAT TEAR ?COS I?LL BE WAITING HERE
WAITING FOR THE WORLD TO SEND YOU HOME
