Eartha Kitt

Two Lovers

I saw two lovers last night,

down where the ships put to sea.

One was the image of you,

the other was so like me.

I saw two lovers last night,

while the sea music played.

Music that told of farewell,

but I was not afraid

Still I can't erase the memory

of their kiss and last goodbye.

A ship on the far horizon,

that last long haunting cry.

So tell me now my love:

These two that said goodbye,

say that it just couldn't be,

no it never could be,

the ghosts of you and I.

I saw two lovers last night,

down where the ships put to sea.

One was the image of you,

the other was so like me.

I saw two lovers last night,

while the sea music played.

Music that told of farewell,

but I was not afraid

Still I can't erase the memory

of their kiss and last goodbye.

A ship on the far horizon,

that last long haunting cry.

So tell me now my love:

These two that said goodbye,

say that it just couldn't be,

no it never could be,

the ghosts of you and I.
