Letra de Affair on 8th avenue

The perfume that she wore was from some little store
On the down side of town
But it lingered on long after she´d gone
I remember it well
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night
Her long flowing hair came softly undone
And it lay all around
And she brushed it down as I stood by her side
In the warmth of her love

And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin
And then we played a game only she could win
And she told me a riddle I´ll never forget
Then left with the answer I´ve never found yet

How long, said she, can a moment like this
Belong to someone
What´s wrong, what is right, when to live or to die
We must almost be born
So if you should ask me what secrets I hide
I´m only your lover, don´t make me decide

The perfume that she wore was from some little store
On the down side of town
But it lingered on long after she´d gone
I remember it well

And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin
And then we played a game only she could win
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night
