invitation

• you and your smile
  hold a strange invitation
  somehow it seems
  we've shared our dreams
  but where?
  time after time
  in a room full of strangers
  out of the blue
  suddenly you are there
  wherever i go
  you're the glow
  of temptation
  glancing my way
  in the gray
  of the dawn
  and always your eyes
  smile that strange invitation
  then you are gone
  where oh where are you gone
  how long must i stay
  in a world of illusion
  be where you are,
  so near yet so far apart
  hoping you'll say with a warm invitation
  where have you been?
  darling come in,
  into my heart^*
