But marble floors to glide on
And loop to ride on
And sultry girls beginning some beguine
I found, as I grew older
And life became much colder
ere, to my sorrow,
Nowo be seen
And so, I sprayed a little perfume
Dabbed a little powder
And Suddenly ted strings
Began to play a little louder
And the difference
I Kept on pretending
I he movies
But everyt you
Youve changed my life somehow
Everyt you

She raised her lovely head
And as beside her
