Dear Elaine Electric Light Orchestra

My dear elaine
May I see you again?
For I've loved you
And I hope to be forgiven
It's been a cold night
How I long to see the light
To have you there
To feel your hair
Dear elaine
Will it still be the same?
From the gateway to your arms
I am forbidden
It's been a cold night
Need the love the burns so bright
To have you there
To feel your hair
Thoughts that once remained discreet
Fall like servants at your feet
Ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Come here, elaine
Please attend to the pain
Please relieve the darken clouds of evening
Prayers I could say
How you swept them all away
I can't believe
You chose to leave
God(? ) that wears the sallow face
Seems to put in my place
Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Dear elaine
Will it still be the same?
Now the house of spirit crumbles
For your love wears many gowns
Love has risen
It has stumbled
Dear elaine
Why should you wish to leave?
Dear elaine
May I see you again
For I've loved you
And I hope to be forgiven
It's been a cold night
How I long to see the light
To have you there
To feel your hair
Dear elaine
