Story behind the song
Many thanks to Peo ( His Master's Choice) for giving a newbie a second chance with another of his great tunes. Many thanks also to Tony DeLecce for adding his not inconsiderable vocal talents. The titles that Peo gives his music almost get half the writing job done.We hope you enjoy it.
Lyrics
WDYC TRIM VERSION
V1
00:21
Sailing the Thames on a summer's afternoon
gazing at your face as I hum you a tune
I love the way you look, with sunlight in your hair
I idolize you baby,,,,, why dont you care
0:44
V2
A walk by the lake, or laying on the shore
every breath you take, just makes me love you more
everything about you speaks of elegance and flair,
I'm burning for you...why don't you care
1:07
chorus
I remember the nighttttt
that I first looked into your mys-ter-ious eyesss
Transfixed at first sightttt
how my heart and soul were completely mes-mer-iiized
:32
v3
A dance at the Palais, a charity affair,
I set my eyes on you, did nothing but stare,
of all the girls there, no one could compare,
I tumbled like a fool who didn't care
musical bridge 1:54
2:18
v4 Time spent with our friends, days I wished would never end,
the touch of your reserve, I couldn't com-pre-hend
my world began to crumble, life was so unfair,
again I asked you: why don't you care
2:41
chorus
I remember that nighttttt
that I first looked into your mys-terious eyesss
your smile was so brightttt
all my senses were struck! completely tan-tal-ized
closer:306
Looking back now, I see it all so plain,
I'd been wasting my time, my efforts in vain
If you'd told me before.. the love wasn't there
I would not have asked you, why dont you care.
