I could be happy the rest of my life
With her
A dreamer of pictures I run in the night
You see us together, chase the moonlight
My cinnamon girl
The drummer relaxes, waits between shows

A dreamer of pictures I run in the night
You see us together, chase the moonlight
(All right)
My cinnamon girl
Pa sent me money now
I'm gonna make it somehow
I need another chance
You see my baby loves to dance
Yeah
