The life swirl

She was wearing rings on every finger,
Lots of bracelets around her wrists,
And she sang with a voice
Which beguiled me immediately.
 
She had opal eyes,
Which fascinated me, which fascinated me.
And the oval of her pale face
Of a femme fatale who was fatal to me {2x}.
 
We met, we recognized each other,
We lost touch with each other, then all over again,
We met again, we warmed each other up,
Then we left each other.
 
On our own we went back
Into the swirl of life
One night I saw her again, oh my,
It's been ages already {2x}.
 
By the sound of the banjis, I recognized her.
This curious smile which had appealed me so.
Her so fatal voice, her beautiful pale face
Moved me more than ever.
 
I got drunk while listening to her.
Alcohol makes you forget about time.
I woke up feeling
Kisses on my burning hot forehead {2x}.
 
We met, we recognized each other,
We lost touch with each other, then all over again,
We met again, we left each other,
Into the swirl of life.
 
We went on spinning
Both entwined
Both entwined.
Then we warmed each other up.
 
On our own we went back
Into the swirl of life
One night I saw her again, oh my,
She fell into my arms again.
 
When we've met,
When we've recognized each other,
Why lose touch then,
Lose touch again ?
 
When we've found each other again,
When we've warmed each other up,
Why leave each other then ?
 
So we both went back
Into the swirl of life
We went on spinning
Both entwined
Both entwined.
