The Bouncer Songtext

von Electric Light Orchestra

"Do you remember," you said to me,
"That you would wait, wait for me eternally?"
I've been wondering, and I've been hoping
You're still the same, only you can say
I'll be so glad to be back with you
I'll do anything you want me to.

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home.

I see your light shine in my window
And I know I am coming home
And as the light grows, grows ever brighter
I see your face, you are alone
And when I tell you all the things I have seen
You'll say that, darling, you must have been dreaming.

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home.

Electric visions have crossed, strange decisions have crossed
I thank the stars above me, I have someone to love me
That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home.

Believe me, baby, when I say
I wish I never, never, never, never, never be away
For the things that I see
Be meant for the eyes of a time
And when we walk alone together
That's how I want it to be, want it to be forever.

That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'd be so happy, back home.
