One night in the distant past I danced with her The fine perfume from the back of her earlobes Was rejuvenating my soul When her head was on my shoulder The silken curls of her black hair Was teasing my hot cheeks The warmth of closeness to her body Was warming my heart and my feelings The well tuned movement of our bodies Together with the sound of music Were reminding me of tropical White sanded calm beaches And of lands where colorful birds With green wings and red beaks From atop of tall trees Were singing the song of love And the waves were calmly Hitting the shore Many days have gone by since And many years And Time has tried To wash away the colors of that night From its memory Or to blur those long gone memories Time, the enemy of my joyful recollections But still and often I see a couple of eyes From which emanate the flames of love And that in the arms of my imagination The place of a voluptuous beauty Is vacant No, no, it is not vacant It is filled with love
