Cherchez la Femme
Cherchez la Femme
From the afternoon canals of Venice
To a moonlit ferry on the Thames
She believes the restlessness of water
Is the unknown twin of freedom’s daughter
Cherchez la Femme
From an ancient Istanbul cathedral
To the mountains of Jerusalem
She believes a journey somewhere sacred
Is a step away from spite and hatred
Will a wand’ring French girl’s intuition
Lead her where love’s roots can find fruition
If it’s myst’ry that her heart yet hunts for
Then perhaps she’ll feel my passion once more
Cherchez la Femme
O she’s a lost Egyptian treasure
She’s a catacomb of mystic gems
Someday I’ll return to dust beholden
To a kiss of death that’s golden
Will a wand’ring French girl’s intuition
Lead her where love’s roots can find fruition
If it’s myst’ry that her heart yet hunts for
Then perhaps she’ll feel my passion once more
Cherchez la Femme
Cherchez la Femme
To a moonlit
To moonlit ferry on the Thames
