"Barbara" lyrics - RUFUS WAINWRIGHT

RUFUS WAINWRIGHT
"Barbara"

If you're runnin' from your doorstep
And you don't know where to go to
Drinking rose in the rain
Or listening to the same song over and over again

If you're lost on a strange path (Lost on a strange path)
Needin' a gate to turn into (Gate to turn into)
Far from the sun
Or listening to someone happier than yourself
(Ahh)

[Chorus:]
Barbara
Barbara
I'll be there (I will be there, I will be there)
(There, Barbara, there, Barbara)
I'll be there (There, Barbara)

And although you may not see me
The trees they will remember
Speak my name
And rose will be sweet (Rose will be sweet)
Suddenly, inclement weather will retreat

[Bridge:]
Although you may not see me
Although you may not see me
Speak my name and

[Chorus:]
Barbara
Barbara
I'll be there (I will be there, I will be there)
I'll be there (There, Barbara, Barbara)
I'll be there (There, Barbara)
I'll be there
