You have always been so kind to me
Mere gratitude is not enough
But if there's anything that I can do or say
To take that pressure off
You know I'll do it
Or at least I'll try
I'm used to living off-the-cuff
Shimmer!
It's a way of life
When no other life is true
Shimmer!
That's the only word
When no other word will do
Shimmer!
Nice new features on your automobile
Maybe I could get a lift uptown?
That's some crazy hat that you've got on today
You really put my feet back on the ground
You know talking ain't my speciality
Forgive me if I'm just going round
Shimmer!
It's a way of life
When no other life is true
Shimmer!
That's the only word
When no other word will do
Shimmer!
It's a way of life
When no other life is true
Shimmer!
That's the only word
When no other word will do
You know you have my affections
And my deepest respect
I'm sorry honey if sometimes I just show
Too much neglect
Shimmer!
Shimmer!
It's a way of life
When no other life is true
Shimmer!
That's the only word
When no other word will do
