Almaz Lyrics
Randy Crawford
Lyrics
She only smiles
He only tells her
That she's the flowers, the wind and spring
In all her splendour sweetly surrendering
The love that innocence brings.
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives.
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz you lucky lucky thing.
Now I watch closely
And I watch wholly
I can't imagine love so rare.
She's young and tender
But will life bend her
I look around is she everywhere
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives.
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz you lucky lucky thing.
He throws her kisses
She shares his wishes
I'm sure he's keen without a doubt.
With love so captive
So sorely captive
I ask if I can play the part.
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives.
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz you lucky lucky thing.
Almaz you lucky lucky thing.
Almaz you lucky lucky thing.
