LOVELY GIRL I DID NOT SEE

chords

songbook



My neighbor in our cheap hotel brought you home last night,
And I could hear every word that went between
As you rocked together in the throes of dear delight.
And your voice and your sighs made me fantasize  
I knew just how you would be
Although we've never met yet, lovely girl I did not see.

The gentle female sounds you made cracked my solitude
And my body caught the gist of what they mean.
I had to wish that you and I were dancing in the nude,
As your moans and your cries made me realize
I knew just how it would be
Although it's never been, lovely girl I did not see.

     Well, the room next door is empty now, my neighbor went away,
     I heard him tell you Goodbye, that he'd take the bus today.
     But don't feel sad and lonely, it will be all right,
     I know just where you could come and sleep tonight.

But can I ever find you, like some stranger on the street?
Well, perhaps you'll hear this song I sing:
I won't be jealous of last night, I thought that it was sweet,
When your soft little cries made my wonder rise.
And I think I know how we might be, 
Although we've never been, lovely girl I did not see.

lyrics


   Em              F#m         Em                    F#m
My neighbor in our cheap hotel brought you home last night,

    A                  F#m              Em
And I could hear every word that went between

A               F#m           D                Em
As you rocked together in the throes of dear delight.

         F#m            Em    G          Bb
And your voice and your sighs made me realize

       D                G
I knew just how you can be

  Bb                 D        C      G              D
Although we've never met yet, lovely girl I did not see.

               G                 Bb            D              F#m
     Well, the room next door is empty now, my neighbor went away,

       G                  F#m                Em             D
     I heard him tell you Goodbye, that he'd take the bus today.

         G                  F#m     D              A
     But don't feel sad and lonely, it will be all right,

            G                   Bb               D
     I know just were you could come and sleep tonight.
