Black Orpheus

Cassandra Wilson · Other Songs - Cassandra Wilson

A day in the life of a fool

A sad and a long lonely day

I walk the avenue

Hoping to run into

The very sight of you coming my way.



I stop just in front of our door

But you're never there any more

So back to my room

And here in the gloom

I cry tears of goodbye



Til you come back to me

That's the way it will be

Everyday in the life of a fool
