My Cherie Amour
La la la la la la La la la la la la My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summers day My Cherie Amour, distant as the Milky Way My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore Youre the only girl my heart beats for How I wish that you were mine
In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street Ive been near you, but you never notice me My Cherie Amour, wont you tell me how could you ignore That behind that little smile I wore How I wish that you were mine
La la la la la la La la la la la la Maybe someday youll see my face among the crowd Maybe someday Ill share your little distant cloud Oh, Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore Youre the only girl my heart beats for How I wish that you were mine
