You have always been so kind to me, |
|
Mere gratitude is not enough. |
|
But if there's anything that I can do or say, |
|
To take that pressure off, |
|
You know I'll do it, |
|
Or at least I'll try, |
|
I'm used to living off-the-cuff. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
It's a way of life, |
|
When no other life is true. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
That's the only word, |
|
When no other word will do. |
|
Shimmer! |
|
Nice new features on your automobile, |
|
Maybe I could get a lift uptown? |
|
That's some crazy hat that you've got on today, |
|
You really put my feet back on the ground. |
|
You know talking ain't my speciality, |
|
Forgive me if I'm just going round. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
It's a way of life, |
|
When no other life is true. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
That's the only word, |
|
When no other word will do. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
It's a way of life, |
|
When no other life is true. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
That's the only word, |
|
When no other word will do. |
|
You know you have my affections, |
|
And my deepest respect, |
|
I'm sorry honey if sometimes I just show |
|
Too much neglect |
|
Shimmer! |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
It's a way of life, |
|
When no other life is true. |
|
Shimmer!, |
|
That's the only word, |
|
When no other word will do. |
