Dear Diary Lyrics - What A Life! - The Divinyls

Dear diary I'm lonely 

Won't you send someone to hold me 

Preston annual fair this room I share the market near 

Dear diary I rode today 

The ferris wheel carried me away 

The jangling tune the dusty moon is it my turn soon 

Dear diary I had a dream 

A serpent came in a cloak of steam 

He wraps me tight each coil a night my heart he bites 

It's been a while so much to say 

It's such a blur each long hot day 

The ferris wheel man terrifies those violent eyes 

The wheel the dust spins round too fast 

The little lights like shattering glass 

Is it a sickness and will it last he hands move fast 

A nutty hole where the squirrels build 

The fairground sky empty and chilled 

The grass is white in squares and black where oil has spilled 

These pages burn and the lonely learn 

Why there still this memory please explain to me 

And why people love so thoughtlessly dear diary 

We all run after a dream in life 

A heart is a lamb in a sacrifice 

Did you ever expect such a struggle and strife 

See how she runs
