LĘTITIA
1 Lętitia-a-a,
It’s such a long time ago-o-o,
I fell in love with you,
I do my best to show
That my love for you is true.
I’m dizzy and in a daze-a-aze,
I see life through a haze-a-aze,
It isn’t just a craze,
It’s no good I can’t pretend,
Time never seems to end.
Lętitia-a-a,
Oh-oh, listen to me-e-e !
Softly and so gently
Is love for fantasy,
But how I feel so blue.
Please don’t go-o-o,
Don’t leave me there like that-a-at,
For you know I need you so,
But your coldness leaves me flat,
Come and let your love flow.
Chorus Help me in my deep distress
Where I feel so hopeless,
Drifting towards nirvana
Where I shall loose
My love for you Lętitia.
There I’ll never get to choose
After all the passing years
Time disappears.
2 Lętitia-a-a,
I can’t live without you-ou-ou,
I would do anything
Just to really have you,
And yet I’m not daring.
I’ve thought and thought about us-us-us,
But don’t want to make a fuss-uss-uss,
Have you ever understood
Words of love that sound right ?
Oh, you’re haunting my nights !
Lętitia-a-a,
Will you take care of me-e-e,
Now I look like a fool,
No pretending to be cool,
I love you so, please don’t go.
Stay with me-e-e,
I beg you don’t go away-ay-ay.
Oh, please, just let me see
That you really love me
Although I know you won’t stay !
To the chorus + instrumental.
End Lętitia-a-a...
