My Cherie Amour Lyrics by Nnenna Freelon

Tales of Wonder

2002

[Verse 1]
My cherie amour, lovely as a summer's day
My cherie amour, distant as the Milky Way
My cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine
[Verse 2]
In a café or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never noticed me
Oh, cherie amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe, maybe someday, I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh, cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine
[Outro]
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, oh, la
La, la, la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la
La, la, la
