corsican rose

Singer:hawthorne, mayer

ooooh

girl don't lie

i know that corsican rose stays on your mind

ohhh

what went wrong

we used to turn up serge gainsbourg and sing along

i had a nice vacation

on to the next location

any port in a storm to keep me warm

i shoulda told you you're the only one for me

how could i ever be so blind

i should have never let you find another guy

there'll never be another time for you and me

i should've held on to you tight

now we'll forever be ships passing in the night

in the night

in the night

we'll forever be ships passing

oooh

mon amour

i stood and stared back at you as i closed the door

oohhh it broke my heart

to see that photo of you in each others arms

i had a nice vacation

on to the next location

any port in a storm to keep me warm

i shoulda told you you're the only one for me

how could i ever be so blind

i should have never let you find another guy

there'll never be another time for you and me

i should've held on to you tight

now we'll forever be ships passing in the night

in the night

in the night

we'll forever be ships passing

if i could turn back the hands of time

i'd never leave your love behind

maybe i'll meet you in the next life

and you'll be mine

i shoulda told you you're the only one for me

how could i ever be so blind

i should have never let you find another guy

there'll never be another time for you and me

i should've held on to you tight

now we'll forever be ships passing in the night

in the night

in the night

we'll forever be ships passing
