You and I, we two
Alone here in this terrace by the sea
The sun is going down
And in your eyes
I see the changing colors of the sea...
It's time for you to go
The day is done
And shadows stretch their arms
To bring the night
The sun falls in the sea
And down below a window light we see
Just you and me...

You and I, we two
Alone in this caffee with dimming lights...
A full and rising moon comes from the sea
And soon the bar will close for you and me
But there will always be a song to tell
A story you and I cannot dismiss
The same old simple story of desire
And suddenly that kiss, that kiss...
