UB40 – Drop On By lyrics
Drop on by when the sun goes down
We can talk or just hang around
Shoot the breeze, tell me what you found
On your search for some common ground

Think of me when the moon is high
Counting stars in the clear night sky
Think of me when the moon is blue
Sitting here just thinking of you

I've been here and I've been there
It's the same most everywhere
We're all trying to get away
Live to fight another day

In my dreams I will follow you
Any place that you want me to
Tomorrow waits on the other side
Patiently for the sun to rise
Don't go now can't you stay a while
Light my night with your loving smile
Once you were gone but now your home
I couldn't bear being all alone

I've been here and I've been there
It's the same most everywhere

I've been here and I've been there
It's the same most everywhere
We're all trying to get away
Live to fight another day [2x]
