love in the afternoon

love in the afternoon

love in the afternoon

hum. he walked right up and told me

that he liked my style

i noticed something different

in the way he smiled

he said you're quite a lady

and i know a place that's shady

would you care to come

and lie with me a while

and deep in my soul

i could feel a quiver

when he went down

and found that sweet old river

and he showed me the way

to find love in the afternoon

mmm. i knew he was a stranger

but i didn't care

we had something in common

but it wasn't clear

you said that life's a lover

when you're loving like no other

don't you think it's time

for you to get your share

and deep in my soul

i could feel a quiver

when he went down

and found that sweet old river

and he showed me the way

to find love in the afternoon

(love in the afternoon

hum. love in the afternoon)

i never could remember

or recall his name

but i hang on to that memory

just the same

you know it makes me crazy

it makes my head all hazy

to think about the way he play that game

cause deep in my soul

i could feel a quiver

when he went down

and found that sweet old river

and he showed me the way

to find love in the afternoon

yes

deep in my soul

i could feel a quiver

when he went down

and found that sweet old river

and he showed me the way to find. showed me and showed me

and showed me the way to find

love in the afternoon

mmm.mmm. mmm.
