Jimmy Buffett — I Wish Lunch Could Last Forever
[Verse 1]
The place down the block, the one with no clock
Covert rendez-vous with you at the usual time
I savor the scent of the fish on the grill
Life's so spicy up on Barbecue Hill
Looking good, you look so fine
Waiter bring us one more bottle of wine
[Chorus]
I wish lunch could last forever
Make the whole day one big afternoon
We'll begin with dessert, a little coconut tart
Tastes as sweet as a piece of your heart
Café au lait beneath the Paris moon
[Verse 2]
Don't hide your eyes, just wear your disguise
Brazil's in the air, I swear it feels like Mardi Gras time
I savor the scent, love that Annick Goutal
As we walk in time to the cathedral bells
[Chorus]
I wish lunch could last forever
Make the whole day one big afternoon
We'll begin with dessert a little coconut tart
Tastes as sweet as a piece of your heart
Café au lait beneath the Paris moon
Oh yeah, uh huh, ooooh
[Verse 3]
I wish love could last forever
Make the whole day a first time love affair
We'll begin with a kiss, such a warm place to start
Let me into your life let me into your heart
Mea culpa mea culpa carnival's in the air
[Verse 4]
We'll begin with a kiss, such a warm place to start
Let me into your life let me into your heart
I wish, I wish that lunch could last forever
Oh yeah, Uh huh, Oh, Oh...
[Outro]
Tout la jour, mademoiselle [ Everyday, mademoiselle ]
Dejeuner tout la jour [ Lunch every day ]
Ah oui, une boutelle de vin blanc [ Ah yes, a bottle of white wine ]
Un dessert? C'est necessaire [ A dessert? It's necessary ... ]
Tres necessaire [ ...very necessary ]
