lyrics

She would sit & wait in silent wonder
Shadows cast as phantoms from the moon
She was a lonely girl, so frightened of the world
He was a stranger from the streets
Swept into her world with wings of angels
Held her in the darkness of her room
He was the only man, that she had ever known
He promised her he would return

As she cried Non vada via, oh, non vada via, oh per favior, non vada via

Now she walks the streets in hopes to find him
Lost inside a raincoat wandering on
She searched with desperate eyes
Behind each golden lie
She cannot bare to be alone
Late at night the street light shines upon her
As she slowly makes her way back home
She'll sleep alone tonight, like every other night
but in her dreams he'll come to her

As she sings Non vada via, oh, non vada via, oh per favior, non vada via
