The Jazz Singer

I’m in love with a jazz singer.
                                             I would do anything to have her.
                                           I’m intoxicated by her sensual style.
                              Her lovely face and shimmering gowns make me smile.

                                              I attend every weekend show, 
                                              but I’m too shy to let her know.
                                          In the back of the dimly lit piano bar, 
                                                      I love her from afar.

                                     Her angelic voice, the saxophone and piano, 
                                      beckons me to step away from the shadow.
                                                Her songs caress my heart, 
                                        and it takes all I can do not to fall apart.
                                        I withstand the crowded atmosphere 
                                                simply because she is here.

                                    A note is sent one month later, I have noticed you, 
                                                      come to my room 102.
                                                               Amazingly, 
                                         the Angel of fate made her feel love for me!
