Santers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's all alone in her dark, lonely room
Her fantasy becomes the moment
She hopes the ending is just what she needs to make it through
Baby blue
Her diamond eyes invite me over
She makes me feel as if I owe her
But something tells me there's more than meets the eye
Oh! when she holds me
I feel her fire destroy me
Baby blue
I leave you in the morning
But I'll stay with you this evening
Baby blue
I wait for her to try and save me
I'm all alone in my dark lonely room
My fantasy becomes the moment
Oh! I hope the ending is just what I need
Oh! when you hold me, ya!
Hold me till your fire destroys me
Baby blue
I leave you in the morning
But I'll stay with you this evening
