Lorelei

I've saved all your pictures, and kept all your cards. Though dreams may have shattered, I've treasured the shards. C'est la vie, they make a bittersweet show and tell. Like a night at the museum when ghosts of the past come alive. Gotta go, bye. There's no point in asking where the heart of it lies. With your enchanting smile and your bewitching eyes Tempting me, it's plain to see I'm under your spell. When you take me to the river, you come on like a true Lorelei. Gotta go, bye. Now with winter ending and spring in the air, The daylight I'm saving is something to share In a song and shine it on my mademoiselle, But you leave for the summer, and I walk away a frustrated guy. Gotta go, bye.
