Love In The Afternoon

(album: ButterFly - 1974)

Love in the afternoon
Love in the afternoon
Hum...
He walked right up and told me
That he liked my style
I noticed something different
In the way he smiled
He said you're quite a lady
And I know a place that's shady
Would you care to come
And lie with me a while
And deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...
(Love in the afternoon)
I knew he was a stranger
But I didn't care
We had something in common
But it wasn't clear
You said that life's a lover
When you're loving like no other
Don't you think it's time
For you to get your share
And deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
(Showed me the way)
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon, hum...
Love in the afternoon)
I never could remember
Or recall his name
But I hang on to that memory
Just the same
You know it makes me crazy
It makes my head all hazy
To think about the way he play that game
Cause deep in my soul
(Deep in my soul)
I could feel a quiver
(I could feel a quiver)
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
(Showed me the way)
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
(Afternoon... ah...)
Yes, deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way to find...
Showed me and showed me
And showed me the way to find
Love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...Mmm...
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...
