Texty: Dinah Washington. Somewhere Along The Line.
Somewhere along the line
You met this heart of mine
Would it unwind it?
Now you would shun it over a glass of wine
Friends knew it all the time
That no weeding bells would chime
I was just a young dreamer, no match for a schemer
Your's was a lover's crime
Folks gossiped, they said it was too good to be true
They even bet you'd search for someone new
This pendent world of ours was paradise
And I was blind by the star dust in my eyes
While you like gambler with his last dime
I know you will try it one more time
But I prayed like Napoleon Bonaparte
You'll meet your Waterloo somewhere along the line
Somewhere along the line
You met this heart of mine
Would it unwind it?
Now you would shun it over a glass of wine
Friends knew it all the time
That no weeding bells would chime
I was just a young dreamer, no match for a schemer
Your's was a lover's crime
Folks gossiped, they said it was too good to be true
They even bet you'd search for someone new
This pendent world of ours was paradise
And I was blind by the star dust in my eyes
While you like gambler with his last dime
I know you will try it one more time
But I prayed like Napoleon Bonaparte
You'll meet your Waterloo somewhere along the line
Somewhere along the line
Washington, Dinah
