I Wait For Late Afternoon And You Lyrics - The Cole Porter Mix - Patricia Barber

They say that I don't know love, I say yes I do 

They say they are counting love, I say I am too 

They mark the years with rings like a tree they say 

I count on smaller things, minutes, seconds, days 

I wait for late afternoon and you 

The industrious bunch through breakfast and lunch 

I wait for it afternoon and you 

The Monday sun softly paves by two 

Though the book of the clerks thinking diligence works 

For pension and perks out due 

I wait for late afternoon and you

If we agree to meet at three 

The concierge and I will see 

The shades are drawn, the staff is skilled 

Our lunch prepared, the champaign chilled 

And if we skip the duck confit 

Your arms and lips will reach for me 

These walls were meant to never speak 

Of songs contempt within a week

So on this late afternoon with you 

Other salesmen reserved all the rumors they've heard 

That this fool may deserve a review 

And still I wait and I wait for you 

I wait for late afternoon and you
