Lyrics

(Ferry)

Oh here it comes again
That old ennui
I hope it won´t stay long
Well it´s every-man to his own thing
And every singer to his song
If you´re feeling low
And all upset
Nothing's going right
You just make a wish
Like in a fairy tale
And i´ll bewitch you
If it takes all night
There are many things
That I could say
To try and comfort you
But I know the words you´d like to hear
Are simply "i love you"
Sometimes i´m up
Sometimes i´m down
A topsy-turvy life
But only searching
For the truth
And i´ll find it
If it takes all night long
Well I myself
May main concern
Is what I can afford
So if music be my mistress
Then at least she´s madame claude...d´accord
Ah - more champagne!
To lose this pain
Would be very nice
So i´ll help myself to one more drink
And i´ll find myself
If it takes all night long
