City Boy Dinner At The Ritz Lyrics

Dinner At The Ritz Lyrics

Do you think that we could risk an evening at the Ritz! 



Another
shabby hotel room would really blitz my ego. 



Why must we meet
like this! Sharing illicit kisses 



You turn a blind eye to the
fact that your leaving my heart in pieces.





I know a little
cafe noir where we can sit and count the stars 



We can stay till
the early hours, supposing of course they allow us 



And when they
play "As Time Goes By" memories seem to hide here 



And while the
world is deep in slumber we'll dance the the eternal rumba.





Won't you come away with me 



Leave it all behind 



There's a happy ending somewhere 



between the lines...





What more can you ask of me, yet another Penthouse suite! 



Going through my dimes and quarters, slipping away like water. 



So through her expensive tastes your pockets have gone to waste 



And I can tell by the way you lie there you're only a paper tiger.





No more early mornings as I gaze in Your eyes 



No
more hidden kisses and sleepy lullabies... 





I'm constantly
aware of the things we can never share 



At the stork club some
chic little pub that I could never afford... 



But I wish that I
could bare your ultra feminine flair 



For your accent on current
events over dinner drives me spare... 







Dinner at the
Ritz, I'd be pleased to make an appointment 



I'll be at your door
an hour before we arranged 



(Repeated)
