Lee Aaron - Private Billie Holiday lyrics

Once in another lifetime A secret place we'd go Down by the western seaside Watching the sun set slow Oh the sun set slow I would have crossed the desert All for one drunken kiss 'Cause you put a smile on my face like Mona Lisa Funny how love's so fearless And there we were So tragic and beautiful That thing you'd always say "You're my private Billie Holiday" Sometimes you'd hold me 'til sunrise Swaying to old jazz tunes How could we fail with faith that felt endless A million dreams so true Both lost and found in a moment That gets you and sweeps you away Changes the course of your life So tragic and beautiful That thing you'd always say "You're my private Billie Holiday" Once in a blue love letter You promised to try for me Why can't life be like a Frank Capra movie With you and I in the final scene Life's a wonderful moment That gets you and sweeps you away Changes the course of your life So tragic and beautiful That thing you'd always say "You're my private Billie Holiday" My private Billie Holiday Private Billie Holiday
