The Grove Of Eglantine Lyrics

Written by Dennis DeYoung

Hey you there

Cast an eye this way

You with that young lust virgin smile

Don't pretend that you're quickly melting before my eyes

That's a lie

'Cause I see all of you

Quite clearly now

I like our looks your moves you know everything

So when I ring you up in the evening I shall meet you

In the Grove of Eglantine

Just south of man's delight

Close to a soft flowing stream

In the Grove of Eglantine

We will join as lovers might

Between the lines of a dream

Your magic lips

Have made me realize

All of the pleasures man can fantasize

So don't pretend that you're sad to see me say goodbye

That's a lie

You're a wicked wench...ha

But thanks for all the laughs

You and your young lust virgin smile

And when I'm gone for awhile

I'll once more want to meet you

In the Grove of Eglantine

Just south of man's delight

Close to a soft flowing stream

In the Grove of Eglantine

We will join as lovers might

Between the lines of a dream

In the Grove of Eglantine

Just south of man's delight

Close to a soft flowing stream

In the Grove of Eglantine

We will join as lovers might

Between the lines of a dream

In Eglantine...of a dream (fade)
