NATHALIE

Nathalie watered the flowers, and whiled away the hours
La vie est belle a Montpellier
A month went by, since they met and then said goodbye
When she closed her eyes, he was far away
He came in on the midnight train
Trouble was his name
And when he called, they didn't know what to say
So they agreed to meet
at one o'clock at the hotel suite
When he reached the second floor,
he read the numbers on the door
He didn't know what he was looking for
Just something more, behind the door.

This time will have to last forever
Sometimes you only have one day
So baby if you want me now
Come over here and show me how
You're just what I was looking for, behind the door
Something more . . .

Nathalie... Nathalie...

Then at ten o'clock
They got dressed and they took a walk
La vie est belle a Montpellier
He said I have to fly home now
Oh no please baby can't you stay awhile
I got to see your smile, to feel your touch
it means so much
But this time has got to last forever
Sometimes you only have one day
So baby if you want me now
come over here and show me how
You're just what I was looking for, behind the door
something more

So Nathalie went back to her flowers, and whiled away the hours
La vie est belle a Montpellier
A year went by, since they made love and said goodbye
When she closed her eyes he was far away
One night when she was all alone, she took a breath, picked up the phone
A million miles away, cher I have to say
I know it was supposed to last forever
and sometimes you only have one day
But baby I just got to know
If loving me is all you know
Cause if you feel like I do
I have to know, I miss you so

Nathalie... Nathalie...

Kiss your child goodbye, get on the plane and start to cry
Au revoir a Montpellier
On the plane she cried
and deep inside her a part died
Then she closed her eyes and was far away
She came in on the midnight plane
and trouble was her name
She took a cab into the night
And when at last they meet, no first kiss was ever so sweet
One kiss, two hearts, five lives tearing apart
cause two will have a second chance
for another love, another dance

And this time it's going to last forever
We're going to take it day by day
So Nathalie take my hand
You're my woman and I'm your man
You're just what I was looking for, behind the door
Something more...

Nathalie... Nathalie...
