Ah, Women

[Edmond]
Ah women,
elusive, and secret...

[Albert]
Like magic...

[Edmond]
See their hands as lithe as willows
gesturing at stars and setting tables
Buried in their hair lies
the intoxicating fragrance of romance!

[Albert]
See the way their eyes will dance
like moonlight on a lake

[Edmond]
Feel the way a giddy breeze will flutter in their wake!
It's more than any man can take...

[Albert]
Ah, women...

[Edmond]
Ah, women...

[Albert]
Skin as smooth as satin sheets and
honeyed lips on faces made for smiling.

[Edmond]
Softer than the whispers that they send you
on a breath as light as lace!

[Albert]
Everything goes faster deep inside you when they're near

[Edmond]
Even when they're far away, their voices somehow clear
Repeating words you long to hear...

[Albert]
They love you...

[Edmond]
They promise...

[Albert]
See them when they linger with the afternoon
Gossiping about the setting sun

[Edmond]
Flickering like moonlight when there is no moon
Launching the dreams you dream, when day is done...

[Albert]
You should see my Valentine...

[Edmond]
I know, I know! There'd never be another
For you see, when I was young,
I felt the same way as you feel today!

[Albert]
I can't eat or sleep and I can't concentrate at all...

[Edmond]
Women make you get that way the minute that you fall!

[Albert]
I love her anyway, need her night and day

[Edmond]
That's why we all sigh and say...
ah women...

[Albert]
Ah, women...

[Edmond]
Ah, women...

[Both]
Ah, women...
