Ralph MacDonald - What's That Perfume That You Wear? lyrics

[Verse 1] What's that perfume that you wear? It brings me back somewhere To the anticipation Before I kissed someone It's got a sadness in it Knowing how it ended A promise of something so sweet That never could be [Chorus] And it smells so good That sandalwood The lavender Lemon ginger And I guess I still love her But she's gone forever And however hard that might feel At least it was real If it could hurt like that [Verse 2] Got a miniature shampoo bottle on my shelf From when we stayed at a hotel And one whiff of that and I'm back there with her Coming out of the shower, she's still in bed fixing her hair Says, "Let's go somewhere" I can smell her sun lotion From the window the jasmine And the salt from the ocean [Chorus] And it smells so good That sandalwood The vetiver Pink pepper And I guess I still love her But she's gone forever And however hard that might feel At least it was real If it could hurt like that [Bridge] (Over and over, over and over Over and over, head up, head up, head up! Over and over, over and over Over and over, head up, head up, head up!) [Chorus] It smells so good That sandalwood The lavender Lemon ginger And I guess I still love her But she's gone forever And however hard that might feel At least it was real If it could hurt like that
