Glória
Laura Branigan - Lyrics

Gloria, you're always on the run now
You're constantly chasing after someone, never able to sit still.

Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow
You're desperately trying to catch up to someone you want.

I think you've got to slow down before you start to blow it
You should take a break before you lose everything due to your hastiness.

I think you're headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it
Your constant running and craziness is leading you towards a meltdown, so try not to let others see your struggles.

You really don't remember, was it something that he said?
You can't recall what started this obsession with the person you're chasing.

Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
You're hearing voices prompting you to keep chasing after what you want.

Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
Aren't you aware that you're losing yourself in this pursuit?

If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
You're desired by many, but nobody is taking action to get to know you.

You don't have to answer Leave them hangin' on the line, oh oh oh, calling Gloria
You don't owe anyone an explanation or response, let them keep calling you.

Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria)
I believe people have figured out how to reach you (physically or emotionally).

I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria)
People know the identity you've been hiding behind (whether it's a nickname or a persona).

Will you marry for the money, take a lover in the afternoon?
Are you willing to make questionable choices in order to achieve financial or personal gain?

Feel your innocence slipping away, don't believe it's comin' back soon
Your lack of morality is causing you to become jaded, and it may be a while before you regain your purity.

(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria) (Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria)
These repeated choruses are calling out to you, maybe even tauntingly.
