Kashka from Baghdad
Lives in sin, they say
With another man
But no one knows who
Old friends never call there
Some wonder if life's
Inside at all
If there's life inside at all
But we know the lady who rents the room
She catches them calling a la lune
At night
They're seen
Laughing
Loving
They know
The way
To be
Happy
They never go for walks
Maybe it's because
The Moon's not bright enough
There's light in love, you see
I watch their shadows
Tall and slim
In the window opposite
I long to be with them
'Cause when all the alley-cats come out
You can hear music from Kashka's house
At night
They're seen
Laughing
Loving
They know
The way
To be
Happy
Watching every night
Don't you know they're seen?
Won't you let me laugh?
Let me in your love
Watching every night
Don't you know they're seen?
Won't you let me laugh?
Let me in your love
Watching every night
Don't you know they're seen?
Won't you let me laugh?
Let me in your love
Watching every night
Don't you know they're seen?
Won't you let me laugh?
