Sabrina

Lights at a party, diamonds and pearls
There goes her love with another new girl
"You can't reach for the moon," they all like to say
And she'll be leaving for Paris on the very next day

Two years in France, two years of growth
She cut off her hair and learned "La Vie En Rose"
Writes dad a letter, says "I'm coming home"
Anxious for the man that loves to roam

Lights at a party, glass in the skin
A dent in the plan before it begins
"The moon is reaching for me," she declares
Until a new face catches her unawares

A ride on the sea, a talk in the dark
A man telling lies to a fragile heart
"Paris is for lovers," he said at the start
Two different brothers, two separate sparks

Smoke of cigars, a boat in the bay
Hatched out a plan to send her away
"There's a front seat and a back seat, and a window between"
Get this misplaced girl out of the scene

Sad kiss goodbye, a punch in the nose
A brother grows up, suddenly he knows
Linus belongs wherever Sabrina goes
And off to Paris they go

Streetlights of Paris, glowing in the rain
A man comes alive, a man becomes sane
"Building rockets to the moon," she heard the old man say
But perhaps the moon was just a stop on the way
