Lyrics
The Smile of Mona Lisa
I was taken by surprise
when I saw your beauty there
and I asked myself
what should I do?
I took of my books
and I sat down
in the garden
hoping that you would
pass by
with your lovely eyes
and the smile of the Queen
the Queen Macbeth
and the smile of Mona Lisa
I wished you were in my bag
But then I thought
it's too early
I will have to wait
when I realized
that you were only 10
Oh, baby
I'm just such a man
of 62 years
I just saw this young lady
in her wonderful release
She was so young
she could be my grand child
So I thought for myself
I was so sad
that I am getting old
I was so so sad
- getting so old
She was
a little girl of 10
with blue, wonderful eyes
and a mouth like a strawberry..
straberry hills I sing
to her because
I know this song well
it is composed by Beatles
by John, Paul and George and Ringo Star
I will never be a star
but this little girl is actually
a real shooting star
Getting old in the end
I ask myself
maybe you should go to bed
it's time
thank you
