The Man in the Grey Bogart Hat



Hello- It's me
Hello-I'm back again
Hello-Did you miss me?
Hello-I missed you -terribly

The flight went on and on from LA.
The starry night sky lit the way
from Singapore to Hong Kong.
My famous blue dress a beacon for
the man in the grey Bogart hat.
Thought I lost him... imagine that.

Followed me to Bangkok,
got off the plane- what a shock,
there he was at the baggage claim,
steel blue eyes, sinister and wild.
The man in the grey Bogart hat,
thought I lost him... imagine that.

Flashing lights, pretty streets,
surging crowds in the summer heat.
Can't escape, nowhere to go.
Made the contact with seconds to spare.
The man in the grey Bogart hat.
Finally lost him... imagine that.

Chocolate From Mars



They climbed upon a hill,
looking down into the valley below.

The sun was setting, time stood still...
the sky blue and apricot.

A warm scented breeze,
their thoughts turning inward.

When the time comes,
be there with me.

Hold my hand, just hold my hand,
and...

Give me chocolate from Mars...
chocolate from Mars...

Give me chocolate from Mars...
chocolate from Mars.

Francois and Catherine



She always liked doors to be opened for her,
never knowing why.

It's always been that way. Her way of life was something to get used to.

Orange blossoms and petitgrain,
fine silk and embroidery.

Do you love me... love me ... love me...
do you love me... love me... love me still?

Never on time, always late for the big show.
She said she couldn't imagine why all the fuss.

Peaceful and calm, always cool and never resentful.

Orange blossoms and petitgrain,
fine silk and embroidery.

Do you love me... love me ... love me...
do you love me... love me... love me still?

She loved him near and far and always and everywhere.
Never one to doubt,
but love made her uneasy.

She couldn't allow herself that peace of mind.

Orange blossoms and petitgrain,
fine silk and embroidery.

Do you love me... love me... love me...
do you love me...love me... love me still?

Yes, I love you ... love you... love you...
yes I love you... love you... love you still.
