Yvette In English歌词

He met her in a french cafe
She slipped in sideways like a cat

Sidelong glances
What a straywary little

She sticks in his mind like that

Saying, avez-vous un allumette

With her lips wrapped around cigarettea

Yvette in english saying
please have this

Little bit of instant bliss

He's fumbling with her foreign tongue

Reaching for words and drawing blanks

A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb

In a bistro on the left bank

if i were a painter, picasso said

i'd paint this girl from toe to head

Yvette in english saying
please have this

Little bit of instant bliss

Burgundy nocturne tips and spills

They trot along nicely in the spreading stain

New chills, new thrills
For the old uphill battle

How did he wind up here again

Walking and talking
Touched and scared

Uninsulated wires left bare

Yvette in english going
please have this

Little bit of instant bliss.

What blew her like a leaf his way

up in the air and down to earth

First she flusters

Then she frays

So quick to question her own worth

Her cigarette burns her fingertips

As it falls like fireworks she curses it

Then sweetly in english she says
please have this
Little bit of instant bliss

He sees her turn and walk away

Skittering like a cat on stone

Her high heels clicking
What a wary straylittle

She leaves him by the seine alone

With the black water and amber the lights

And the bony bridge between left and right

Yvette in english saying
please have this

Little bit of instant bliss.
