An Old Man Kissed My Hand

An old man kissed my hand outside a shop My hair was gleaming in the yellow sun What surprise, what care, but what a shock What grace there was in customs , mainly stopped My face was bright, my stockings had no runs A man just kissed my hand outside a shop I should have done a selfie, what a cop! I bet he fell in love ,ah Beatrice won What surprise, what care, but what a shock He was not drunk, his hands had just been mopped I had not been so touched by anyone Till this man kissed my hand outside a shop In a silent morning, love erupts We know what’s passed but not what is to come A man just kissed my hand outside a shop Give us our applause, oh come on,clap! I think we’ve fallen off the usual map An old man kissed my hand outside a shop What surprise, what feeling, what good luck
