Gardenia Lyrics

Crystal Bernard
Don't Touch Me There
Gardenia
(crystal bernard/david rhyne)

A million dollar face
So ivory and fair
That launched a thousand ships
Danced with fred astaire
Lusted for her dreams
So passionate and wild
So talented it seemed
Everybody wants to be a gardenia
So beautiful and delicate to touch
Something 'bout the way we loved gardenia

As the years went by
Her beauty didn't fade
Movies didn't come
[ Crystal Bernard Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
She felt so betrayed because
The more she had to give
The less they want to buy
I guess she outlived
Her moment in the sun to be gardenia
So beautiful and delicate to touch
Something 'bout the way we loved gardenia
Hadn't seen her for sometime
And i apologized
I said i'd give my youth to you
For the wisdom in your eyes
I wish i'd been there every day
To take good care of you
She said baby, don't you cry
I knew you'd come in time to see gardenia
And with her fragile hand she said good-bye
Something 'bout the way we loved gardenia
