I'll be coming back to you Darlene

Back to your dark eyes and hair

Marry me when I return Darlene

And until that day my love take care

May the lord who watches all watch over thee

May god's heaven be you blanket as you softly sleep

Marry me

Are yours to keep

Good morning old man

I was young and shy detached and sad

Spent my days indoors a home bound lad

Hardly spoke few friends

I kept myself to myself

Quite alone

Then I found marconi's telegraph

It couls span the planrt's width by half

Fifty yards two thousand miles

The same

Touch the spark sound the tone

And the night was alive

With a thousand voices

Fighting to be heard

And each and every one of them

Connected to me

And my life cam alive

With a thousand voices

Tapping out each word

Like a thousand people

Joined with a single heartbeat

Tapping out our dit dit dah dit dah dit

May the lord who voices

Watches all

Watch over thee and every one of them

Connected to me

Marry me so alive with a thousand

Voices

May god's heaven be

Your blanket

As you sleep those people

Joined with a single

Heartbeat
