Eddie Money - Life for the Taking

Maureen

I wanna tell everybody a story 'bout
A lucky young man who fell in love (eh, eh)
And a change in mood can happen to you

Oh, it seemed that late every night
I would have the same dream about a girl, just right
I mean one I would love for the rest of my life
And then one day, this girl from my dreams came walking my way

Not Michelle, not Nadine, no, no
She smiled as she told me
Her name was Maureen

Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

'Til that day, my life was in pieces
What more can I say, oh, oh
In a world now
I'm going to bed early just to see
That damn girl (ooh)

Maureen (my love)
Maureen (my dream)
Maureen (my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

Sleepy as I was, I was
Dreaming life away
Now my life is filled with joy
Lucky man, oh lucky man, I am
I thank that old sandman, my dreams came true

Yeah

Oh now, I'm in love
Have got me a girl from somewhere above
She's my life (ooh)
She's my dream
I love her
My Maureen now (my Maureen)

Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)

My Maureen (she's my love)
Maureen (she's my dream)
Maureen (she's my girl)
Maureen (Maureen)
