Hoot Owl
All I ever wanted
Was a walk down the road
With your hand holdin' my arm
But the hoot owl moans
For me all alone
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Has it all been a lie?
No I can't believe that
Tell me what I hear isn't true
Is the owl in the oak tree the only one here with me?
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Is it death or living that scares me the most?
Or is it just plain being alone?
Seems I'm always alone
That hoot owl moans
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Don't call me, don't write me
And I'll leave you alone
So we can forget what we had
The owl can console me with his midnight tune
But I don't think I've ever felt so sad
So I draw all the curtains
And I lock all the doors
And I dream of that walk down the road
But the hoot owl awakes me
And a cold shiver shakes me
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Oh, now tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Was a walk down the road
With your hand holdin' my arm
But the hoot owl moans
For me all alone
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Has it all been a lie?
No I can't believe that
Tell me what I hear isn't true
Is the owl in the oak tree the only one here with me?
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Is it death or living that scares me the most?
Or is it just plain being alone?
Seems I'm always alone
That hoot owl moans
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Don't call me, don't write me
And I'll leave you alone
So we can forget what we had
The owl can console me with his midnight tune
But I don't think I've ever felt so sad
So I draw all the curtains
And I lock all the doors
And I dream of that walk down the road
But the hoot owl awakes me
And a cold shiver shakes me
Tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
Oh, now tell me, pretty baby, are you really gonna break my heart?
