Dana, my darling, I´m writing to you.
Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
And I don´t want to bother You anymore,
I used to hope you´d come back
But not anymore Dana.

My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
Dana, my darling, would be so bad.

Dana, my darling, I´m writing to you
Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
And I didn´t mean to bother you anymore
Your mother wished: Come visit your faters grave, Dana

Your father disowned you because you have sinned
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
And I you won´t do those things anymore
Dana My darling I´m waiting for

Dana O´Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O´Hara decided one day
To travel away, faraway

No, you can´t surprise me anymore
I have seen it all before
But it seems I cannot let you go
Anyhow, Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana

And I think that I told you, I´d wait for you forever
Now I know someone else´s holding you,
So, for the first time in my life - I must lie
Lie´s a sin, mess that I am in,
Love is not the thing I feel know
I promise you: I won´t write again
´Til the sun sets behind your grave

Dana, oh, Dana I´m writing to you, I heard you passed
Away it was a beautiful day
I´m old and I feel time will come for me, my diarys
Pages are full of thee

Dana O´Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O´Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away
