(Joni Mitchell and David Crosby) [Intro. (Acoustic Guitar)] He met her in a French cafe She slipped in sideways like a cat Sidelong glances what a wary little stray She sticks in his mind like that Saying "Avez-vous une allumette?" With her lips wrapped around a cigarette Yvette in English saying "Please have this Little bit of instant bliss" He's struggling with a foreign tongue Reaching for words and drawing blanks A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb In a bistro on the left bank "If I were a painter" Picasso said "I'd paint this girl from toe to head" Yvette in English saying "Please have this Little bit of instant bliss" Burgundy nocturne tips and spills They move along nicely in the spreading stain Letras de cancionesNew chills new thrills for the old uphill battle How did he wind up here again Walking, talking, touched and scared Uninsulated wires bared Yvette in English going "Please have this Little bit of instant bliss", mmm [Instrumental (Acoustic Guitar)] What blew her like a leaf this way Up in the air and down to earth First she flusters then she frays So quick to question her own worth Her cigarette burns her fingertips It falls like fireworks she curses it Sweetly in English she says "Please have this Little bit of instant bliss", mmm ... He sees her turn and walk away Skittering like a cat on a stone High heels clicking what a wary little stray She leaves him by the seine alone With black water and amber lights A boney bridge between left and right Yvette in English saying "Please have this Little bit of instant bliss" [Ending (Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar and Synth)] From Letras Mania
