Manhattan Transfer - Foreign Affair слова песни
When traveling abroad in the continental styleIt`s my belief that one must attempt to be discreetAnd subsequently bear in mind your transient positionAllows you a perspective that`s uniqueThough you`ll find your itinerary`s a blessing and a curseYour wanderlust won`t let you settle downAnd you wonder how you ever fathomed that you`d be contentTo stay within the city limits of a small midwestern townMost vagabonds I knowed don`t ever want to find the culpritThat remains the object of their long relentless questThe obsession`s in the chasing and not the apprehendingThe pursuit you see and never the arrestWithout fear or contradiction Bon Voyage is often holleredIn conjunction with a handkerchief from shoreBy a girl that drives a Rambler and furthermoreIs overly concerned that she won`t see him anymorePlanes and trains and boats and busesCharacteristically evoke a common attitude of blueUnless you have a suitcase and a ticket and a passportAnd the cargo that they`re carrying is youA foreign affair juxtaposed with a statesideAnd domestically approved romantic fancyIs mysteriously attractive due to circumstances knowingI will only be parlayed into a memory
