Simone

(album: Fade Into Light - 1996)

Darling lets stop this pretending
What more is there to say
Here's to your eyes and my final demise
Yes Simone in you

I knew from the start that an unwary heart
Was about to go out for a ride
Conquer the room with a touch of perfume
Oh Simone its you

Oh Simone my heart is breaking
Yes my dear I think its going fast
You got to let me know
You got to let it show for it to last

Oh Simone to hold you
To dance you into the night
And on into the dawn
And on and on and on into the light

Make it romantic make it up I don't care
Look up and sigh even if its a lie
Oh Simone what can I do

What charm could sway me
Then burn and betray me
But thrill me the way that you do
Second to none so completely undone
Oh Simone its you

Oh Simone my heart is breaking
Yes my dear I think its going fast
You got to let me know
You got to let it show for it to last

Oh Simone to hold you
To dance you into the night
And on into the dawn
And on and on and on into the light

It's time they told you
It's about time you knew
Straighten your gown
Throw a Manhattan down
Ah Simone what can you do

Why do you think you're fooling somebody
Do you think that I can't see
There's no doubt not a trace
It's all over your face
Oh Simone its me

Oh Simone my heart is breaking
Yes my dear I think its going fast
You got to let me know
You got to let it show for it to last

Oh Simone to hold you
To dance you in to the night
And on into the dawn
And on and on and on into the light
