GEORGE:
Jenny,
You're a miracle!
Is there nothing you conceal?
Jenny,
You astonish me!
Never hiding
What you feel

Other pleasures
And I've known many
Afternoons
In warm Venetian squares,
Brief encounters,
Long siestas
Pleasures old and new
Can't compare with you

You amaze me!
Where did you come from?
You do things
Champagne could never do
Crystal winters,
Crimson summers
Other pleasures --
I would trade them all
For you

Pleasures old and new
Can't compare with you

Wild mimosa,
The scent of evening
Shuttered rooms
With sunlight breaking through
Crazy soirees
Lazy Sundays
Other pleasures
I would trade them all
For you

Sailing off
In the night
On a silver lake
Taking more
From this life
Thank I ought to take
Other pleasures
I would trade them all
For you
