In every town and village, In every city square, In crowded places - I searched the faces hoping to find someone to care...

I read mysterious meanings
In the distant stars,
Then I went to schoolrooms
And poolrooms
And half-lighted cocktail bars.
Braving dangers,
Going with strangers,
I don't even remember their names.
I was quick and breezy
And always easy
Playing romantic games.

I wined and dined a thousand exotic
Joans and Janes and James and Jan...
I do not remember
In dusty dance halls, at fancy party's,
I do not remember
On lonely country lanes.
I do not remember
I fell in love forever,
I do not remember
If every year or so, perhaps
I wooed them sweetly, was their completely,
I do not remember...
But they always let me go, in my wagon
I think...

Saying bye now, no need to try now,
You don't have the proper ???
I do not know
Too sentimental and much too gentle
I don't tremble in your arms,
I think...

Then you rose into my life
I think
Like a promised sunrise.
Brightening my days with the light in
your eyes.
I think...
I've never been so strong,
I think...
Now I'm where I belong
I hope...

My yellow house !
