“There Is Somebody Waiting for Me”

Description

"Oh the moon shines bright and the stars they give light And the evening invites (you/me) to (stay/stray)." The singer describes (her)self as a bird in a cage, but happily announces "There is somebody waiting... There is somebody waiting for me."

Notes

The first line of this, of course, is from the "Bellman's Song." Don't ask me where the rest of the song went. - RBW

I don't know where it went, but someone is waiting for it. - PJS
