My Romance

Roberta Flack · Roberta [1995]

I won't kiss your hand, Madam,

Crazy for you though I am.



I'll never woo you on bended knee,

No Madam, not me.



We don't need that flowery fuss,

No sir, Madam, not for us



My romance

Doesn't have to have a moon

In the sky



My romance

Doesn't need a blue lagoon

Standing by;



No month of May,

No twinkling stars,

No hide away,

No soft guitars.



My romance

Doesn't need a castle

Rising in Spain,



Nor a dance

To a constantly surprising refrain.



Wide awake

I can make my most fantasizing dreams come true.



My romance doesn't need a thing but you.
