Lyrics Continental Farewell - Hal Ketchum

Continental Farewell

Moonlight in the curtains love in the air
A bouquet of roses on the floor
Your perfume mingles with cigarette smoke
Dom Perignon at the door
Two star crossed lovers in candle light
Bathe in the afterglow
I’d like to stay here and talk all night
But one of us has got to go
Your money’s on the dresser adios
If you’re looking for love you ain’t even close
It’s been a honeymoon
But I may chew my arm off soon
Your money’s on the dresser adios
I know you’re happy here in my arms
Waiting to feel Cupids bow
But if you keep talking there’ll be a gun in mouth
In another 10 minutes or so
Seems I was finished a good while back
Clearly you’re not finished yet
You’re painting rainbows, I’m fading to black
Don’t get me wrong me wrong dear just get
Your money’s on the dresser adios
If your looking for love you ain’t even close
It’s been a honeymoon
But I may chew my arm off soon
Your money’s on the dresser
No I’m not your confessor
Your money’s on the dresser adios
