"Sally Came To Stay" lyrics

"Sally Came To Stay"

She's a pearl, I'm her diver
She's a saint, I'm her song
I don't know why but I love her
It's almost like in a dream

And honest to God
I can't believe it's really real
Oh, oh
The sudden demise of every bad thing I could feel
Oh, oh
And honest to God
She took my life and rearranged
I haven't deprived her
Not since Sally came to stay
(Sally came to stay)
(Sally came to stay)

Funny face, that's what she calls me
Well I don't mind, cos it's true
She needs love, and I love her
Well, love to love, don't you?

And honest to God
I can't believe it's really real
Oh, oh
The sudden demise of every bad thing I could feel
Oh, oh
And honest to God
She took my life and rearranged
Oh, oh
I haven't deprived her, not since Sally came to stay

One by one
My fears ended
Sun by sun
My tears went a rainbow away
I'm glad to say
I got love
I got love

I got love, and she's made me
So much more than you see
She's a pearl and I'm her diver (I'm her diver)
There's no one richer than me
Mmm

And honest to God
I can't believe it's really real
Oh, oh
The sudden demise of every bad thing I could feel
Oh, oh
And honest to God
She took my life and rearranged
Oh, oh
I haven't deprived her
Not since Sally came to stay
(Sally came to stay)
(Sally came to stay)
(Sally came to stay)
(Sally came to stay)
