Lyrics - Keeper Of The Flame

She:

You can't be much surprised to hear

I think you are sweller than swell,

He:

But granting all your virtues, dear,

You've certain failings as well.

She:

You don't sing enough, you don't dance enough,

He:

You don't drink the great wines of France enough!

She:

You're not wild enough,

He:

You're not gay enough,

She:

You don't let me lead you astray enough.

He:

You don't live enough, you don't dare enough,

You don't give enough,

She:

You don't care enough,

He:

You don't make my sad life sunny enough.

She:

Yet, sweetheart, funny enough--

I've got you on my mind

Although I'm disinclined,

You're not so hot, you,

But I've got you on my mind.

He:

I'd thank the gods above

If I could only love

Somebody not you

But I've got you on my mind.

She:

Let my poor upset leisure be

Otherwise my pet treasure be

He:

And arrange to let pleasure be

A bit less refined.

Both:

For, darling, not until

I get thet famous thrill

Will I be resigned.

I've got you on my mind.
