Lyrics
catalina-fire down below
catalina-bracelets & a bow
cataline-ribbons in the snow
catalina-I know you had to go
catalina-dollar to a dime
catalina-we'll work it out in time
catalina-bells are gonna chime
catalina-all the words will rhyme sometime
catalina-always on my mind
catalina-seek and you shall find
catalina-though you robbed me blind
catalina-you were always so kind Ill be there for you
dogs are barking, snow is fallin,
cold December like the one before
I don't know which way I'm headin'
but there ain't no turning back no more
It's not a sit-u-a-tion from a fairy tale
but I'll be there for you
when all the others fail
I'll be there for you
catalina-voice from a guitar
catalina-lightning in a jar
catalina-whatever else you are
catalina-you're a bright and shining star
