[Verse 1]
See her candle
Waver in the window of her summer night
Lying on the breeze
She tries to fall asleep
Flights of fancy
Dancing through her memories like Arabian Nights
He is riding on his wings of fire
And flies away
She can still hear him say
[Chorus]
If you'll be wise
If you'll be smart
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart
Take my advice
Don't let it start
You'll think you're different from the rest
You'll try to do your part
Until he breaks your heart
[Verse 2]
Lunch for the lonely
Looking at picture postcards of someone else's scene
Somehow they don't seem real
The sea's too green
Somebody calls her
Giving out information
About the boy on the moon
Suddenly it's all too much
To be told
What she already knows
See her candle
Waver in the window of her summer night
Lying on the breeze
She tries to fall asleep
Flights of fancy
Dancing through her memories like Arabian Nights
He is riding on his wings of fire
And flies away
She can still hear him say
[Chorus]
If you'll be wise
If you'll be smart
Don't let a travelin' man take your heart
Take my advice
Don't let it start
You'll think you're different from the rest
You'll try to do your part
Until he breaks your heart
[Verse 2]
Lunch for the lonely
Looking at picture postcards of someone else's scene
Somehow they don't seem real
The sea's too green
Somebody calls her
Giving out information
About the boy on the moon
Suddenly it's all too much
To be told
What she already knows
