Hello, who are you
I never saw this girl before
I was asthonished as can be.
Somebody told me she said
You're just a hungry little guy
So I would like to offer me
To bake some cake for you
The sweetest one you've ever tried
A special cake for you the one that makes you satisfied
Good-bye sadness,
I'm dreaming while you slip away.
She took me by the hand
She really took me by surprise
One piece of cake was not enough
And so I helped myself
We danced inside fool's paradise
And I got drunk of all the love.
Then I realized
She moved her velvet body over mine
I felt like melting ice
I must admit this woman was divine
Hey, hey, madness,
I'm dreaming while you slip away.
While Buddy the sweeper
Was singing a sad song
And Mary the singer swept the street
The honeymoon's floating
Over the river
Your cake is sweet.
I had a heartache
All the pain was over now
She said: "Bye, bye little babe".
It was nice to meet you
She closed her eyes and disappeared
I hope some day we'll meet again.
If apple or cherry-pie
You honey-bee I love the way you bake
Your cakes are wonderful
Don't care about my stomach-ache.
Good-bye sadness,
I'm dreaming while you slip away.
While Buddy the sweeper
Was singing a sad song
And Mary the singer swept the street
The honeymoon's floating
Over the river
Your cake is sweet.
