Marilou Holiday lyrics

In the house of love, an empty chair
Saving up my heart for one who cares
You're not here, but i'm not upset
Cause i haven't met you yet

You're what i cannot find
Understanding and so kind
All the other girls settle for less
Say this as they get undressed;

You're my holiday
Place where i can stay
When i've had my fun, then i'll be gone
Dream i'll be one day in love swept away
Until it comes, you'll be the one

I'm not a victim of this circumstance

I know what i want so i'll raise my hand
If you're looking for a quick romance
Picked the wrong girl there's no chance

This ain't a lullaby
It's a warning to the blind
If you play the game of «love excess»
You'll end up just like the rest… they say.

You're my holiday
You know i won't stay
We will share this song, and i'll be gone
You're my holiday, place where i can stay
When i've had my fun, then i'll be gone
