Two Dozen Eyes

Give me one moment Mister, hold the line
 I think that we're investigating in a crime
 Did you just say that you've seen her alive?
 Outside, by yourself what were you doing at this time?
 I'll get hold of you and
 I'll be back by daylight.
 If that's not what I'll do
 There's no need for you to wait.
 Tip Toed to the lake where her friends had slept.
 All of them were dressed in gold and red.
 Silver candles, vacant beds of leafs and straw
 and then I rubbed my eyes, couldn't believe what I saw.
 Boy keep dreamin on,
 cant be waiting all night long.
 She's been far away from home,
 maybe driftin' into the moonlight.
 Sir that girl is gone,
 how I wish that i was wrong.
 Driftin how she's driftin bad,
 moving on her way in midnight.
 There they were on a wooden raft,
 silent, bare skinned and motionless
 Two dozen eyes and the smiling moon,
 And this is all that I can tell to you.
 I'll get hold of you and
 I'll be back by daylight.
 If that's not what I'll do
 There's no need for you to wait.
