Brandy

Joseph B. Jefferson and Charles B Simmons

BY THE OPEN FIREPLACE IN MY FAVOURITE DUNGAREES,
PLAYED A FEW BARS OF A MELODY AND IT SOUNDED SWEET TO ME.
THOUGHT I GET UP AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND BUT MY FEET GOT IN MY WAY,
STUMBLED TO THE FLOOR, SHE WAS RIGHT AT THE DOOR, I COULD EVEN SEE HER FACE.

BUT HOW COULD IT BE (how could it be)
SHE RAN AWAY FROM ME.
MY BEST FRIENDS GONE AND I'M SO ALL ALONE.

I KIND-A MISS YOU, BRANDY, I'M SO ALL ALONE,
WHEN ARE YOU COMING BACK HOME?
I REALLY MISS YOU, BRANDY, MISSING YOU EV'RY DAY,
ARE YOU COMING HOME TO STAY?

SITTING ON A LONELY BEACH BUILDING HOUSES OUT OF SAND,
LIKE A LITTLE CHILD WITH A FANTASY, JUST A FRACTION OF A MAN.
I WAS IN LOVE WHEN THEY PUT HER DOWN ON MY DOORSTEP IN THE RAIN,
I COULD FEEL THE LOVE COMING INTO MY HEART THROUGH MY WINDOW PANE.

BUT HOW COULD I KNOW (how could i know)
THAT SHE WOULD UP AND GO
MY BEST FRIENDS GONE AND I'M SO ALL ALONE. (alone)

I REALLY MISS YOU, BRANDY, I'M SO ALL ALONE,
WHEN ARE YOU COMING BACK HOME?
I REALLY MISS YOU, BRANDY, MISSING YOU EV'RY DAY,
ARE YOU COMING HOME TO STAY?

I KIND-A MISS YOU, BRANDY WHEN ARE YOU COMING BACK HOME?
I'M SO ALL ALONE.
SAID I REALLY MISS YOU, BRANDY, MISSING YOU EV'RY DAY,
ARE YOU COMING HOME TO STAY?
