Audrey lyrics

She smiles like flowers and perfume

French lady from the country 

That I left too soon

Waiting there for me to zoom by

When I see her, it makes me cry

Oh, I see her and it makes me cry

Audrey Hepburn in her smile

Same name

So bizarre that they both look this way

Dark, exotic lips and cheeks that possess

Some charm, some grace

Something you can't erase

Audrey, can you get away tonight?

Tell your papa that it's surely an emergency

Don't tell him that it's me you see

Don't tell him that it's me you see

Waiting by the seashore 

Holding on to our hats

Wanting some silence from the world 

And a little tenderness

From a world where endings come to gloom

And the flowers fall apart too soon (too soon)

Will they always fall apart too soon (too soon)?

Audrey, I'm not like 

The boys they screen in Cannes

I'm trying to drop my guard 

And maybe win again

Do you think that we 

Are doomed to broken English?

Do you think that we ever can?

Oh, Audrey, it's hard to pretend

Audrey, can you get away tonight? Please?

Tell your papa that it's surely an emergency

But don't tell him that it's me you see

Don't tell him that it's me you see

There'll be hell to pay tonight

Do you think if we wait

That we'll win or lose?

Do you think we'll be together?

Do you think that we're just fools

Fools?

(Hey, Audrey)

Ooh

Audrey, I'm willing to try

But I ain't like the other guys

Audrey, can you get away tonight?

Tell your papa that it's surely an emergency

Don't tell him that it's me you see

You see, you see

Audrey, can you please get away tonight?

Come on, darling

Tell your papa that it's really an emergency

Don't tell him that it's me 

Don't tell him that it's me you see

There'll be hell to pay, Audrey

Come on, yeah

Get away tonight

Yeah

Tell your papa that it's surely an emergency

Don't tell him that it's me you see

Audrey, can you get away tonight?

Tell your papa that it's surely an emergency

But don't tell him that it's me you see

Don't tell him that it's me you see, baby, no

Audrey, can you get away tonight?
