Cyrano deBerger's Back

I gotta a couple of words to say
for all you strong & silent types
who don’t talk to the girls they want to love
though it means their life
I’ll say this next time you get stuck
and the words won’t come
“your eyes are blue as the coals
that burn in you black corsage.”
I’ll talk for you
under the balcony in blue
I’ll talk for you
‘cause Cyrano deBerger’s back

I’m gonna listen carefully
to hear what our Roxanne will say
and though I love her twenty time more
I would never say
“I should be the rouge & the color on your cheeks.”
instead I just make you look good
and be so discreet.
I got ten arms for you
ten hearts all beating blue
this ain’t a lie
this ain’t behind
Cyrano deBerger’s back
