Cadence and Cascade
[Verse 1: Gordon Haskell]
Cadence and Cascade
Kept a man named Jade
Cool in the shade
While his audience played
[Chorus: Gordon Haskell]
Purred, whispered “Spend us too
We only serve for you”
[Verse 2: Gordon Haskell]
Sliding mystified
On the wine of the tide
Stared pale-eyed
As his veil fell aside
[Chorus: Gordon Haskell]
Sad paper courtesan
They found him just a man
[Bridge: Gordon Haskell]
Caravan Hotel
Where the sequin spell fell
Custom of the game
Cadence oiled in love
Licked his velvet gloved hand
Cascade kissed his name
[Flute Solo]
[Chorus: Gordon Haskell]
Sad paper courtesan
They knew him just a man
[Outro: Gordon Haskell]
Cadence and Cascade
Cadence and Cascade
Cadence…
