If he were alone in the desert Without a drink of water around On his knees and hands in that white scorching sand With the hot Sahara sun beating down If he could be granted his wishes And anything he'd want would come true I know that it might sound funny But here's what he'd want you to do
Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And tell her everything would be okay If I could just see her Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And if I leave this old world Tell her she's the only girl for me
If he were adrift on the ocean A vessel with no sails or steam Floating aimlessly on the endless sea Hopelessly lost it would seem If all of the fish in the water Could echo his last dying plea I know that you might not understand it But here's what he'd want it to be
Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And tell her everything would be okay If I could just see her Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And if I leave this old world Tell her she's the only girl for me Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And tell her everything would be okay If I could just see her Tell Lorrie I love her, tell Lorrie I need her And if you leave this world You're still the only one for me And if I leave this old world Tell her she's the only girl for me (For Keith)
