Affair On Eighth Avenue

Written by , Gordon Lightfoot

	  		Em                   D             Am          Bm           C            D  
The perfume that she wore was from some little store on the down side of  
town.  
Em               D      Am           Bm       C          D  
But it lingered on long after she?d gone,  I remember it well.  
        G        D             C          D  
And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light,  
G                     Em          Am           F      D  
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night.  
  
  
Her long flowing hair came softly undone in a pile all around.  
And she brushed it down as I stood by her side in the warmth of her love.  
And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin,  
And we played a game only she could win.  
And she told me a riddle I?ll never forget  
And left with the answer I?ve never found yet.  
  
?How long,? said she, ?Can a moment like this belong to someone??  
?What?s wrong, what is right?  For to live or to die,?  
?We all must be born.?  
So, if you should ask me what secrets I hide,  
I?m only your lover, don?t make me decide!  
  
The perfume she wore was from some little store on the down side of town.  
But it lingered on long after she?d gone, I remember it well.  
And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin,  
And we played a game only she could win.  
ANd our fingers entwined like ribbons of light  
And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night.
