"Invitation" lyrics
"Invitation"
You and your smile
Hold strange invitation
Somehow it seems
We've shared our dreams
Oh Lord, but where?
Time after time
In a room full of strangers
Out of the blue
Suddenly you're there
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the grey of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
Then you're gone
Tell me where
Oh, where have you gone?
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
But where are you?
You were so near
Yet we're so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been, darling
Come into my heart
Thanks to Dede for correcting these lyrics.

Just like a friend

On a cloudy...
Ella Fitzgerald - "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" Everytime we say goodbye, I die a little,
Everytime we say goodbye, I wonder why a little,
Why the Gods above me, who must be in the know.
