The Clock Strikes Eight -- We stumbled into Paradise. L'inferno di Dante

Speranza

1935

Sam Coslow, from“The Clock Strikes Eight: A Musical Comedy”.

 

IN THE MIDDLE OF A KISS

suddenly it dawned on me

IN THE MIDDLE OF A KISS

I knew you were mine

in the middle of a sweet embrace

that you at first resented

remember how surprised we were

to find we really meant it

 

in the middle of a sigh

we stumbled into paradise

in the twinkle of an eye

we lost it again

for we didn't comprehend

that our dream of love would end

just the way it began

IN THE MIDDLE OF A KISS
