A Room With a View

I've rented a room with a view
  of a freshwater lake with a hue
    Nature's deepest sparkling blue …

I've rented a room with a view
  of a garden with every conceivable flower
    whose scents grow more fragrant each hour

I've rented a room with a view
  of stunning alabaster palaces
    engraved with exquisite chalices 

I've rented a room with a view
  of a forest deep and enchanted
    where gold and blue macaws are planted

In each room I've rented's a view
  that elicits many an ah and an ooh
    Yet I'd trade the whole lot of these views
      ~ for one more evening, my angel, with you

Yes, I vaguely remember something like that, although the movie probably featured the usual Hitchcock horror.
