Hey There

Doris Day · Other Songs - Doris Day

Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes

Love never made a fool of you

You used to be too wise



Hey there, you on that high flying cloud

Though she won't throw a crumb to you

You think some day she'll come to you



Better forget her

Her with her nose in the air

She has dancing on a string

Break it and she won't care



Won't take this advice

I hand you like a brother

Or are you not seeing things too clear

Are you too much in love to hear



Is it all going in one ear

And out the other



Better forget her

Her with her nose in the air

She has you dancing on a string

Break it and she won't care



Won't you take this advice

I hand you like a brother

Or are you not seeing things too clear

Are you too much in love to hear

Is it all going in one ear and out the other
