Farewell, Farewell Adieu
by Y. Dan Rubinstein
Lyrics
Jammin crepes
Hazelnut and chocolate flakes
The night that never ends
We danced and swayed as friends
Furtive smiles, the light embrace
Sleeveless gown, sheer black lace
He thought he loved you
He really needed you
Oh what could have been
Farewell, farewell, adieu
He thought he loved you
He really needed to
Yeah what should have been
Farewell, farewell, adieu
Farewell, farewell, adieu
The years dissolve
Cobblestones and castle walls
The pounding, deafening beat
You glisten in the heat
The fired dough
The archway sing the final show
The pinot that we sipped
Taste of you lingered on my lips
He thought he loved you
He really needed you
Oh what could have been
Farewell, farewell, adieu
He thought he loved you
He really needed to
Yeah what should have been
Farewell, farewell, adieu
Farewell, farewell, adieu
Farewell, farewell, adieu
Adieu
