Gordon Lightfoot - Affair On 8th Avenue слова песни
The perfume that she wore was from some little store
On the down side of town
But it lingered on long after she`d gone
I remember it well
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night
Her long flowing hair came softly undone
And it lay all around
And she brushed it down as I stood by her side
In the warmth of her love
And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin
And then we played a game only she could win
And she told me a riddle I`ll never forget
Then left with the answer I`ve never found yet
How long, said she, can a moment like this
Belong to someone
What`s wrong, what is right, when to live or to die
We must almost be born
So if you should ask me what secrets I hide
I`m only your lover, don`t make me decide
The perfume that she wore was from some little store
On the down side of town
But it lingered on long after she`d gone
I remember it well
And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin
And then we played a game only she could win
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night
