She was beautiful
I couldn't look away
She was yellow and gray
The colors of the day
A bit too gorgeous
And not much to say
Stars on her little white wrists
Silken ribbons
Flowing from her hips
A smile that stopped time
Bittersweet as wine
She's lost and she's fine
Taking her time
I saw a gypsy today
Across the way
I heard someone say
Pick up a penny
Have luck for a day
But I picked that coin up
And I ain't found no luck
Just wanderin' and stuck
In the mud and the muck
But I saw a gypsy today
I saw a gypsy today She was beautiful I couldn't look away She was yellow and gray The colors of the day A bit too gorgeous And not much to say Stars on her little white wrists Silken ribbons Flowing from her hips A smile that stopped time Bittersweet as wine She's lost and she's fine Taking her time I saw a gypsy today Across the way I heard someone say Pick up a penny Have luck for a day But I picked that coin up And I ain't found no luck Just wanderin' and stuck In the mud and the muck But I saw a gypsy today Explain Request ×
