The Lady Is Lingering Lyrics - Sparks

Every word pronounced distinctly, slowly 

There are no contractions, nothing slurred 

Unprepared you watch in rank amazement 

As she lights her cigarette and stirs 

Every motion is complete, no editing of anything 

Encouraging, encouraging, and not 

the customary bill of fare 

Can't you see the lady is lingering 

(lingering) 

This lady's lingering, and you cannot believe 

the reason why

Every sip is of the smallest quantity 

That still denotes apparent thirst 

Every question is a means to draw long answers 

Play the fool, it doesn't hurt 

Splitting, splitting headache coming 

Get up early in the morning 

Where are the funny phrases 

That are always followed by goodbye 

(Chorus) 

Is it now all up to you, do you now 

guide the evening, or do you await 

a further signal, a look, a touch, a sigh 

(Chorus)

Risky business, all this waiting, wondering 

A risky business, all this waiting, wondering 

A risky business, all this waiting, wondering 

A risky business, all this waiting, wondering 

(Chorus)
