Lyrics

His gaze
Swept over me now
a slow hot wind
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
There in the shade
Like a cool drink waiting
She sat with slow fire in her eyes
Just waiting
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot slow hot wind
There in the shade
Like a cool drink waiting
She sat with slow fire in her eyes
Just waiting
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot
wind
Written by: Henry Mancini, Norman Gimbel
