Lartigue

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was sworn to Lartigue A French maid to Henri 'Till you took her away from me [Verse 2] And I loved the way She used to dust during tea 'Till you took her away from me [Verse 3] She's the kind of girl you see In a pin-up magazine Or up on the silver screen [Verse 4] Starring in a famous scene She gets in the limousine Showing off her diamond rings [Verse 5] Oh, we had plans to build A chalet by the sea 'Till you took her away from me [Verse 6] Laughing over arguments Between Nantes and Nice 'Till you took her away from me [Verse 7] But at least we could agree On a different cuisine Every night of the week [Verse 8] Lartigue please come back to me How am I supposed to grow old without you? [Verse 9] Lartigue please come back to me How am I supposed to go on without you? [Verse 10] Lartigue, I am eager to please And in 30 I'll retire We'll be so admired As we sit and watch the tide Our ship's come in
