In the back room of Eulipia Cafe
With a rose between your teeth
And a smile that made the floor fall way
And start spinning underneath
With your eyes that seemed to know me well
Blue eyes that caught me when I fell
Was You
You
In the ancient Arizona motel
With my ring upon your hand
Breaking my fever with an empathy spell
Singing Winter Wonderland
With your words to hand the world upon
From the lips I love to lay mine on
Was You
You
And through the hours of promise and pain
Long dry Dust Bowl days when the rain wouldn’t come
Livi ng for a true heart to give yours to
Was you
And in the morning reed brick patio of the angels
Haloed by a climbing rose
Rare and beautiful as San Francisco sunlight
And Arizona snows
With your longing heart so plain to see
It’s pulling mine right out of me
Is You
You
You
With a rose between your teeth
And a smile that made the floor fall way
And start spinning underneath
With your eyes that seemed to know me well
Blue eyes that caught me when I fell
Was You
You
In the ancient Arizona motel
With my ring upon your hand
Breaking my fever with an empathy spell
Singing Winter Wonderland
With your words to hand the world upon
From the lips I love to lay mine on
Was You
You
And through the hours of promise and pain
Long dry Dust Bowl days when the rain wouldn’t come
Livi ng for a true heart to give yours to
Was you
And in the morning reed brick patio of the angels
Haloed by a climbing rose
Rare and beautiful as San Francisco sunlight
And Arizona snows
With your longing heart so plain to see
It’s pulling mine right out of me
Is You
You
You
