What you do and what you say
Won't you have me Ellie Mae
You always glow in my archway
I could see you floating there in white
A honey kissed and sweetened sky
You're the tumbling world I can't deny
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I'm holding on
Don't you disappear
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I don't belong
Without you my dear
Oh Ellie Mae won't you stay
I found your letter on my floor
It says you're leaving Sunday morn'
It's your humour I adore
It's been a week without the sun
I'm dark and stormy feeling numb
I guess you did decide to run
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I'm holding on
Don't you disappear
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I don't belong
Without you my dear
Oh Ellie Mae won't you stay
So what's between us now?
This storm has turned to drought
Our distance crippling
I feel you slipping
The earth stopped spinning
But I won't let go now
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I'm holding on
Don't you disappear
Oh oh Ellie Mae
I don't belong
Without you my dear
Oh Ellie Mae won't you stay
Oh Ellie Mae won't you stay
What you do and what you say
I think I love you Ellie Mae
