THE AVETT BROTHERS LYRICS - Bella Donna

"Bella Donna"



Baby, I asked you not to keep me waiting.

I told you now to keep me waiting.

Now the afternoon is fading on.



Donna, Bella Donna have you seen me?

Have you ever really seen me

Like I want for you to see me now?



Lonesome like you were when you were sixteen.

When maybe even I weren't listening.

Did I help when I was kissing you?



Donna, Bella Donna are you listening?

And were you ever really listening

Like I want for you to listen now?
