The house is haunted
By the echo of your last goodbye
The house is haunted
By the memories that refuse to die
I can't get away from the vision that brings
Intimate glimpses of intimate things
A voice in my heart like a torch singer sings
I wonder who's kissing you now
The house is haunted
By the echo of your favourite song
The place is cluttered up
With memories that have lived too long
Much too long
The ceilings are white but the shadows are black
The ghost in my heart says
You'll never come back
The house is haunted
By the echo of your last goodbye
I'll never forget you
The house is haunted
By the echo of your last goodbye
Do you remember
Those hazy amber days
We were but children
Having the time of our lives
We had no regard, no respect
A floor was a bed
And a bed held the mysteries of life
They had to end
But so soon?
And to sit in the dark
Of my lonely room
Made it all seem so cruelly real
Say no goodbyes, no regrets
For the things that we said
How we said
That we only wanted an answer
To our dreams
We wanted an answer to our dreams
Ignorance is bliss
When adulthood we can resist
To embrace the years with grace
What a waste
What a waste
The fun we had
The fun we'll have
Reckless immaturity
For stars we are
And stars we'll be
Just you and me
For stars we are
And stars we'll be
Just you and me
Somewhere deep in the scarlet city
A million dreams are not enough
I'm knee deep in fallen women
Being alone in the scarlet city
Can be tough
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
I'd give you anything you asked
Just for a second of your time
I could be your guardian angel
When it comes to pleasure
I could be your guide
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
Well I've seen the sights of New York
I've seen day become night
I've seen the Brooklyn Bridge
All covered in lights
I've dived to the depths
I've scaled the heights
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
I've had it all
But I'll give you the most valuable thing in the world
I'll give you my very last pearl
I'll give you the most magical thing in the world
I'll give you my very last pearl
For this could be the magic
This could be the magic
This could be the magic
The very last pearl
Make a wish on the
Very last pearl in the world
The very last pearl
Somewhere deep in the scarlet city
Waits the key to all my dreams
You're the cure for someone jaded
Someone jaded, someone just like me it seems
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
I want to be your angel
I want to be your angel
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
I've seen a Mediterranean night
The ships on the sea
The most beautiful eyes in the world
And the saddest eyes in the world
Call me romantic
Call me deluded
But I didn't care at all
But I'll give you the most valuable thing in the world
I'll give you my very last pearl
I'll give you the most magical thing in the world
I'll give you my very last pearl
