Lyrics
The Scent of You
Music by Felice Kaye-Cooper
Lyrics by
Felice Kaye-Cooper and Ross Cooper
Intro:
Verse 1
The morning sun is in the sky.
I close my eyes I don?t know why?
Alone am I in here,
The warmth of you still near
The Scent of You is in the air
Verse 2
Your footsteps echo from the night.
Your silhouette glows in the light.
Though you're not here with me
You are still close to me.
The Scent of You is every where.
Chorus:
Shadows dance before my eyes.
Showing, that you soon will be
Bringing all the love within your heart.
Longing to feel your touch
And wanting, to hold you so much.
Needing to have your body next to mine.
Bridge
Missing all the moments
That we shared together.
I cannot wait till your return.
Time has stopped today
Since you have gone away
It's almost more than I can bear.
Verse III
The stars foretold you?d come to me.
Fate showed you in my every dream.
All my life I waited.
For a love created
To fill the loneliness with you
Coda:
Hold me.
Let your body enfold me.
That this moment will never
Be lost and fade into the night.
Tell me.
That you'll be mine forever
That this moment will never
Be gone by morning's light.
Fine
