Weeping Beverly (Moe Zart's Bigband Cover)

[Lyrics by Karl Layton, the author as known on German Amazon.de, all rights reserved, [email protected]] [Verse] You found me on the floor Drunk and passed out You took me through the bathroom door Cleaned and washed me well, I moaned loud Put the garters and stockings on me Placed a kiss on my knee [scat] [Prechorus] And I said What-ya-doing And you kissed me Lay next to me Said all is well You are back from the dead Divine intervention Brought you back [Chorus] I missed you much No-one is like you Not Henrik, the Dutch It's for the things you do Not Claude, not Paul No No single one, not all I missed you much [Verse 2] I woke up, you next to me It couldn't be, you are dead Died long ago, you see Ten short years after we met But there was your hand All over me Bringing me to ecstasy's land [Bridge] Oh I-I-I-I-I love you Yes I do But you can't be here But I-I-I-I-I love you Yes I do [Chorus] We make love again I smile and lose myself So happy it's almost pain The bottles forgotten on the shelf [verse] I wake up after hours, feel like reborn But you are gone, only the scent of you left Stockings and garter torn The best of my life taken again by time's theft I reach for the bottle Hoping it will bring you back I lost control, let go of the throttle Leaving me a complete wreck [Chorus] Every night I wear your favorite lingerie Stockings fine and garters white But it's all for a ghost from yesterday's scenery My soul just a lost kite [instrument solo] [Woman speaking] I touch my legs, so long Feel the nylon tenderly Being alone so wrong Dying slowly, ending this song with... Forever yours, Weeping Beverly
