Lyrics
Song - Eloise
Verse #1
A string quartet, a glass of sweet French wine,
An expensive meal, a flower preserved in time.
All these things I like, but they're not really what I seek,
Listen closely to my heart and you will hear it speak.
Lift
Then you will know the special song,
That unlocks the secret of love's mystery.
Chorus
Pan's Magic Flute or a violin,
Plays the music of my soul,
The melody within.
My heart is gently beating,
To the rhythm that it writes.
You can hear it softly calling,
Softly calling, Eloise,
Softly calling, Eloise.
Verse #2
A simple song, that's all I need to hear,
Straight from your heart, with a beat that rings sincere.
Mystic tunes fill the air, with their pure and scented love,
Sung by a choir of angels, sent from up above.
Lift
Then you will hold the special key,
That unlocks the secret of love's mystery.
Chorus
Pan's Magic Flute or a violin,
Plays the music of my soul,
The melody within.
My heart is gently beating,
To the rhythm that it writes.
You can hear it softly calling,
Softly calling, Eloise,
Softly calling, Eloise.
Bridge
To win my heart you'll need to see,
The light that shines inside.
Then our love song will be for life,
And the melody will sing.
Instrumental
Chorus
Pan's Magic Flute or a violin,
Plays the music of my soul,
The melody within.
My heart is gently beating,
To the rhythm that it writes.
You can hear it softly calling,
Softly calling, Eloise,
Softly calling, Eloise,
Softly calling, Eloise.
