Marianne Faithfull - Eye Communication

Did he take you out dancing, holding you tight,
Did he show you steps one, two, and three ?
Did he leave you at your doorway, whispering good-night ?
I wish I'd been there to see how he did it,
I wish I'd been there to see.

When you went on vacation to Paris and Rome,
Did he show you how sweet life can be ?
Did he make his reservation, exercised his rights ?
I wish I'd been there to see how he did it,
I wish I'd been there to see.

What became of the night on a six cylinder charger
With money to burn and a castle for two ?
Now poor Cinderella will always remember
The fairy tale hero that almost came true.
