Adieu! - Jimmy Somerville

A night of splendour

And sweet surrender

And now a sad adieu

Why must there always be farewell

All through tomorrow

I’ll live in sorrow

Till ev’ning brings me you

And once again I dwell

Within your charming spell

Adieu!

Why must I say adieu to you

The night is young, the moon is new

And we’re in love we two

Adieu!

Don’t take away your loveliness

I want to stay in your caress

And thrill the long night through

Oh can’t you hear as we part

The voice of my heart crying

It cries as never before

For one hour more of love

Adieu!

Why must there be a parting kiss

Why can’t we just go on like this

And never say Adieu!
