Love Tastes Likes Strawberries
Nana Mouskouri · Other Songs - Nana Mouskouri
Love is fast like fingers flying
Love is soft like years of crying
While the spices interlace
Love' s got a fresh strawberry taste
****
And when the peddler cries strawberries
That' s when my heart replies, strawberries
Love tastes like strawberries
****
Met my love in the market place
My heart stopped when I saw his face
The very man said won' t you try this
We looked, we bought, we stole a kiss
****
The berries are gone and spring has pass
But I know my love will always last
For rain has gone with a sudden haste
Love' s got a fresh strawberry taste
****
Ai - ai - ai - ai - ai...
