Lost To A Geisha Girl

There's a rattle in the paper from the tremble of my hand

Each time I read the note you sent from the island of Japan

Now you say you found another that has made your life worthwhile

And I've lost you to a geisha girl dressed in oriental style.

I don't believe in tea leaves or the writing in the sand

You've let a foreign woman prove the weakness of a man

Where the dim lights of a tea house makes a lonely heart grow wild

I've lost you to a geisha girl dressed in oriental style.

Does the beauty of the islands and your oriental love

Make the moon and stars seem brighter as they shine each night above

Why a love song with no meaning makes you happy I don't know

I've lost you to a geisha girl where the ocean breezes blow.

I don't believe in tea leaves or the writing in the sand

You've let a foreign woman prove the weakness of a man

Where the dim lights of a tea house makes a lonely heart grow wild

I've lost you to a geisha girl dressed in oriental style...
