Vanity - Steve Lawrence

Enter the scenery of love

Lovers are in pain

They blame and pick on each other

You play melodies of love

Forgotten phrases

Tender and sweet

Come a little bit closer

Don’t stay in the shadows my boy

(la la la la la la la)

The melody’s fading…

Now or never, love will go

I’ll be there by your side

Share your fears in the silent redemption

Touch my lips, hold me tight

Live in vanity for a while

As winter melts in the sun

Boys will be out running and reaching for the light

Oh mother please find me in that place

Before the memories tear us into pieces

Clinging to affection, we somehow do learn to live

(la la la la la la la)

In endless motion

Never coming back, love will go

You’ll be there by my side

You may never know my devotion

Feel my breath in the quiet night

Live in vanity forever

Won’t you feel my gentle emotion

Let us live in peace with conviction

If you’re here please hold me
