The Ball - Nelo

It’s a hundred miles to get there

And there is no easy way

But we’ve got everything and

The cooking’s on the way

Well we’re in for rainy weather, but

We got everything we need

When the clock strikes twelve

We’ll be kicking up our feet

Well it’s not long

For you and I to get there

It’s the same song

For you and I together

It’s a right wrong

For you and I to make it to the ball

There ain’t no sense in sitting down

When the fire isn’t far

Just one more mile and

We’re underneath our star

You kiss me once, I’ll kiss you twice

With our patience giving in

Such a lovely game that we play

When we are kids

Well it’s not long

For you and I to get there

It’s the same song

For you and I together

It’s a right wrong

For you and I to make it to the ball

Oh baby, please see me

Oh baby, don’t

Oh baby, please see me

Oh baby, don’t

As we slip into the center

Of the midnight masquerade

Well the world goes round and

The colors start to fade

As I rub my eyes I wake to find

I’ve been sleeping in the hall

And stuck on my face

Are the kisses from the ball

Well it’s not long

For you and I to get there

It’s the same song

For you and I together

It’s a right wrong

For you and I to make it to the ball
