Feel like Buddy Holly
---------------------
Alvin Stardust 


I watched the planes come in 
on the early morning flights, 
but I could not stand 
to see them land 
without you. 
So I'm thumbing through my 45's 
on another endless night, 
and the same old lines 
going back in time 
tell me this is nothing new. 
And I feel like Buddy Holly, 
'cause it's raining in my heart. 
All the sad songs take me back to you 
now that we are apart. 
And I know how Paul McCartney felt 
when he got up to say 
"I wish it was yesterday!" 
So I sit here playing solitaire, 
it's game I know so well 
ever since the day 
you called to say 
it's over. 
And I've made my reservation 
at Heartbreak Hotel. 
While I'm sitting without you, 
I'm thinking about you 
like only the lonely do. 
And I feel like Buddy Holly, 
'cause it's raining in my heart. 
All the sad songs take me back to you 
now that we are apart. 
And I know what Paul Simon meant 
by the words he found: 
"I wish I was homeward bound!" 
And I feel like Buddy Holly, 
'cause it's raining in my heart. 
All the sad songs take me back to you 
now that we are apart. 
And I know how Paul McCartney felt 
when he got up to say 
"I wish it was yesterday!"
