Baby face, above the keys Got me tracking down that one Ella song on the radio I'm wavering down this avenue And all its corners you've enchanted I'm high Growing old don't suit me well Well, I heard, lately you've been kissing up to all the royalty Well, nowadays, I'm hopelessly Spending the first day of spring Beneath that same big old pine The long days I get ahead So high, oh high Here's to imaginin' getting a taste of all the things that we would do Here's to portraying the way as you appeared in all the movie scenes we knew Never dared just to leave this dream again So I could play this vicious game that breaks my bones No, no, no, no I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones A pair of eyes, a trusted shape Oh, it comes with a feeling that I just cannot define anymore What do you see? Remember me? As I play through all these picture scenes I can recall them all The long days I get ahead Still high, so high Here's to imaginin' getting a taste of all the things that we would do Here's to portraying the way as you appeared in all the movie scenes we knew Never dared just to leave this dream again So I could play this vicious game that breaks my bones No, no, no, no I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones Won't you leave me in this state of mind, there's nothing left to gain I won't go back to all the mint juleps to smother all that pain Poising on the street light, as in "Dancing In The Rain" So you'd get the picture of the decent man that I am trying to be Trying to be No, no, no, no I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones I can't pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones I won't pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
