the papers lie there hopelesslyin a pile outside the doorI tried and tried, but I just can`t rememberwhat they`re forthe world outside is tugginglike a beggar at my sleeveah, that`s much too old a story to believe
and you know, that it`s taken it`s share of meeven though you take such good care of me
now you say morocco, and that makes me smileI haven`t seen morocco for a long, long whilethe dreams are rolling downacross the places in my mindand I just had a taste of something fine
the future hides and the past just slidesengland lies betweenfloating in a silver mist, so cold and so cleancalifornia`s shading like some angry child willwho has asked for love and isn`t answered still
and you know that I`m looking back carefully`cause I know that there`s still something there for me
but you said morocco and it made me smileand it hasn`t been that easy for a long, long whilelooking back into your eyesoh, I saw them really shineand giving me a taste of something fine
something fine
now if you see morocco, oh I know you`ll go in styleI may not see morocco for a little whilebut while you`re there I was hoping youmight keep it in your mindto save me a taste of something fine
something fine
