The perfume that she wore was from some little store on the down side of town.

But it lingered on long after she?d gone,  I remember it well. 
        G5        D5             C5          D5 
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light, 
G5                     E5          A5           F5      D5 
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night. 
 
 
Her long flowing hair came softly undone in a pile all around. 
And she brushed it down as I stood by her side in the warmth of her love. 
And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin, 
And we played a game only she could win. 
And she told me a riddle I?ll never forget 
And left with the answer I?ve never found yet. 
 
?How long,? said she, ?Can a moment like this belong to someone?? 
?What?s wrong, what is right?  For to live or to die,? 
?We all must be born.? 
So, if you should ask me what secrets I hide, 
I?m only your lover, don?t make me decide!
