Lyrics

So many friends were lost in the war
I said I wouldn’t make you a widow
And promised to marry if I made it back
 
When my ship pulled into the shore
I took you in my arms in a sailor’s kiss
Breathed in your smile and that mischievous laugh
 
You said I’ve been waiting
It’s not polite to keep a girl waiting…and we had
 
Gin and tonic with appetizers
Cognac with Dessert
Looking out at the Golden Gate
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you, I’d go
 
Kids, dog, a revolving door
A garage that looked like a sporting goods store
Station wagon, the American dream
 
We pinched every penny
Gave thanks for all of our blessings
But late at night thumbed through travel magazines
 
I’d say, “There will come a day
When I will whisk my favorite girl away”…to have
 
Gin and tonic with appetizers
Cognac with Dessert
Sitting on the left bank of the Seine
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you, I’d go
 
And once again, I’m keeping you waiting
I never meant to keep you waiting
But I’ve always come through
And I’m catching up with you
I’ll see you soon…to have
 
Gin and tonic with appetizers
Cognac with Dessert
I don’t think God will mind I think of heaven as
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you
I’d go, I’d go, Anywhere…to have
Gin and tonic with appetizers
Cognac with Dessert
