Perfume In the Breeze

The beach is a lonely place

This time of year

The mongers and the tourists

And the children

Have all disappeared

I'm not sure what happened

But it happened so fast

People say love like this can never last

But, what a night

What a night

What a night

I'm still not alright

Oh, you vanished

Like a rainbow

From the horizon of my heart

Left me seaside like a homeless

I pushed my sorrows in the car

Oh, you vanished

Like a shadow

Into the darkness of the seas

Maybe next time, my sweet lover

I'll catch your perfume in the breeze

Flicking through channels on the TV set

To quiet my mind

Reality shows and the news replaces

The piece I can't find

I'm not sure what happened

But it happened so fast

People say love like this can never last

Fortune tellers

And tarot cards

Can't find the clues

Won't heal my scars

Oh, you vanished

Like a rainbow

From the horizon of my heart

Left me seaside like a homeless

I pushed my sorrows in the car

Oh, you vanished

Like a shadow

Into the darkness of the seas

Maybe next time, my sweet lover

I'll catch your perfume in the breeze

And you'll bring summer back again...

Oh, you vanished

Like a rainbow

From the horizon of my heart

Left me seaside like a homeless

I pushed my sorrows in the car

Oh, you vanished

Like a shadow

Into the darkness of the seas

Maybe next time, my sweet lover

I'll catch your perfume in the breeze
