Goodnight, Eloise

The flowers on the hill

Are blown away on summer breeze

Goodnight, Eloise

Are you still awake

Or on to dream another dream

I believe in sunlight laughing

Through the years

The time is passing

Don’t you think it’s time for you and me

You lament, another sorrow

In my mind, there’s still tomorrow

Baby sister, would you care to see

Goodnight, Eloise

Were you in Orleans

Or in Paree in small cafés

Causing quite a scene

But only when your heart

Has been delayed

I believe there’s still tomorrow

Would you take

A hand and borrow

Things upon my soul, upon the page

By surprise and never knowin'

We collide and doors are open

Baby sister, you know how to dream

So sail away and dream

Goodnight, Eloise

The flowers on the hill

Are blown away on summer breeze

Goodnight, sweet Marie

Reading all your books

In small cafés

I believe in sunlight laughing

Though the years

No tears are passing

Goodnight, Eloise

Another day

Goodnight, Eloise

Another day
