(Shel Silverstein)
|
|
I guess the dance is over now
|
So you just curtsey and I'll bow
|
And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne
|
|
Then I'll just take what's left of me
|
Right back to where it used to be
|
And you'll go sail your magic carpet, far across the sky
|
|
I wish I could have made it
|
More like the movies for you
|
Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been
|
I'm sorry when I kissed you
|
You only heard me whisper
|
You never got to hear those violins
|
Did you girl?
|
No you never got to hear those violins, no
|
|
The castles that you built so high
|
Were just too steep for me to climb
|
And I guess these dirty streets of mine
|
Were just too rough for you
|
|
I wish I could've helped you see
|
Just one of your sweet childhood dreams
|
But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true
|
|
And I wish I could have made it
|
More like the movies for you
|
Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been
|
I'm sorry when I kissed you
|
You only heard me whisper
|
You never got to hear those violins
|
Did you girl?
|
No you never got to hear those violins
|
|
Oh I'm sorry when I kissed you
|
You only heard me whisper
|
You never got to hear those violins
|
No you never got to hear those violins
