Mysterious Retreat
Won’t you carry me away to some mysterious retreat
Where the travel agents promise you the sky
Where the orchestra’s imported
And as flat as the champagne
Where we might forget to whom we said goodbye
Seems I still can’t hold my liquor
But I never lose the floor
And I never act this way when I’m at home
And the moon is makin’ faces
Or it could be just a cloud
Or it’s me pretending I am not alone
Dance for me, I’m driftin’ like the sea
I’m here today and gone just like the tide
Give me something to remember
Like a cork speck in the wine
And I might forget to say goodbye
Dance for me, I’m driftin’ like the sea
I’m here today and gone just like the tide
Give me something to remember
Like a cork speck in the wine
And I might forget to say…
