| Slowly that scent reaches me
|
| The perfume you wear I can’t forget
|
| Floating so lightly upon the air
|
| Just like the smoke from a cigarette
|
| I just turned around and there you were
|
| Returning almost faster than you’d gone
|
| My, but time’s been good to you
|
| Sleek and graceful as a swan
|
| And by the way, hello again
|
| I’m so pleased to have your company
|
| We’ll count the stars under misty sky
|
| And watch them fall into the sea
|
| Your voice so whispers soft and smooth
|
| Telling me tales of a human cloud
|
| Who walked a thousand miles
|
| Just to touch their ladies' gowns
|
| A noble thought, there’s no doubt
|
| And I must confess I can’t compete
|
| Clouds that walked a thousand miles
|
| Just to touch their ladies' feet |
