Artist: Roxy Music Album: For Your Pleasure
Lyrics
(Ferry)
Valerie please believe It never could work out The time to make plans Has passed, faded away
Oooh the way you look Makes my starry eyes shiver Then I look away Too much for one day
One thing we share Is an ideal of beauty Treasure so rare That even devils might care
Your swimming-pool eyes In sea breezes they flutter The coconut tears Heavy-lidded they shed Swaying palms at your feet You're the pride of your street
While you worship the sun Summer lover of fun Gold number with neighbours
Who said that you'll go far Maybe someday be a star A fast mover like you And your dreams will all come true
All of my hope, and my inspiration I drew from you Our life's patterns drawn in sand But the winds could not erase The memory of your face
Deep in the night Plying very strange cargo Our soul-ships pass by Solo trips to the stars - in the sky
Gliding so far That the eye cannot follow Where do they go We'll never know
