Don Juan is Lonely Tonight
Words & Music by Serene Dominic & Ed Masley
If fate had been a little bit kinder
I’d be there not him
Serenading you by the fire
With a violin under my chin
Suspended from your trellis, feeling overzealous,
Rehearsing sonnets til the murky morning light
Casanova’s passed his quota
But Don Juan is lonely tonight
If I’d been 12 years younger
With long blonde wavy hair
You’d starve for my attention
While savoring all my savoir faire
Although his words ring hollow
He’s the act you follow
Into your chambers with a squeal of pure delight
But Casanova is past his quota
And Don Juan is lonely tonight
And the clock strikes...NO!
Here alone I suffer
My aging skin grown tougher
While Valentino takes you down without a fight
Your Casanova is past his quota
And Don Juan is lonely tonight
I pray you soon discover
Your cheap Italian lover
Under some barmaid lying about his height
Your Casanova well past his quota
And Don Juan is lonely tonight!
