The Alan Parsons Project - Dora

Lead Vocal : Eric Woolfson



Dora, in the middle of the night

will you wait for me

Till the morning sun shine bright

For it's all a dream

And it's only make believe



Dora, oh it hurts to hear you say

You're all alone

And the pain won't go away

But it's all a dream

And it's only make believe



Listening through the hours of the day

Waiting for the night to end

Thinking, though it's not for me to say

When will I see you again

When will I see you again



Forget the lies they whisper in your ear

And every superstitious word you hear

Dora, though the truth is hard to face

And the fantasy

Is not easy to replace

It's all a dream

And it's only make believe



Oh, I keep thinking

Of the words I shouldn't say

When will I see you again

When will I see you again



And every doubt they whisper in your ear

And all the half-forgotten past you fear

One day will fade away and disappear



Dora, in the middle of the night

Do you wait for me

where the morning sun shine bright

Is it all a dream

Is it only make believe



Is it all a thread

Of the tangled web you weave

Is it all a dream

Is it only make believe
