Magic Moment (From The Gay Life)

What does it matter what dress I wear?

He wouldn't notice that I was there

Would you, Anatole?

And why put an ornament in my hair?

He wouldn't see and he wouldn't care

Would you, Anatole?

For years I've followed your escapades

I've heard of your deeds unheard of

And when I was only a girl in grades

Your faults I would not hear a word of

But what did it matter that there was I?

Your biggest fault was you passed me by

I've been waiting for the magic moment

You'll say you love me

Oh, how tragic if the moment's magic

Never came to be

Take me, take me

In your arms awake me

Never set me free

You and I belong together

Together we're stronger than alone

And we can make of love a lifetime

Of magic moments all our own

Take me, take me

In your arms awake me

Never set me free

You and I belong together

Together we're stronger than alone

And we can make of love a lifetime

Of magic moments all our own

Magic moments all our own
