Lyrics
Continental Girl
It?s a shame you missed the war,
But maybe you were there before?
In soft muslin shirts, impressionistic scenes,
Once a continental girl.
Tone and color tantalize
A passion deep within your eyes
For cool line and form, expressionistic dreams.
Once a continental girl.
I don?t know you, but we can play make believe,
I don?t know you, and yet I can still retrieve
Your soothing spirit on a moonlit night.
And when I find you on the shore
You?ll feel we?ve played the scene before,
And in soft gentle tones we?ll paint another song.
Once a continental girl.
I don?t want you, so really it?s not my style,
I don?t want you, I just want to play awhile,
In the light of your spirit on a cloudless night.
And when I find you on the shore
You?ll feel we?ve played the scene before,
And in soft gentle tones we?ll paint another song.
Once a continental---no doubt sentimental---
Once a continental girl.
