This song is a tribute to Audrey Hepburn. This song references famous moments, ideas, and lines from two of her works: Breakfast At Tiffany’s and My Fair Lady.
Song About Having A Crush On Audrey Hepburn
To be fully transparent, this is a song about my crush on Audrey. And let’s be honest – it’s a crush that thousands if not millions of other people also have. Her aura follows and precedes her. The song celebrates her legendary eyes, charm, sense of fashion, her acting and singing, and most of all, her elegance!
As the author of the song, there is a lyric in the chorus of the song that poetically summarizes my crush on her. The line is “Memorize your eyes.”
When I started writing it, I didn’t know how the lyrics of the song were going to come out. I was just inspired by her elegance and gentleness. But as the song is now live, what I am pleasantly surprised is that I was able to come up with the line “memorize your eyes” which is exactly for her and about her.
FULL SONG LYRICS
CHORUS 1
Breakfast at sunrise.
While I memorize your eyes.
Memorize your eyes.
VERSE 1
Let down your hair.
Scarf drifting in the air.
Moon River’s perfect pair.
And no one can compare.
VERSE 2
You hat brim wants to hide –
A loneliness inside
Otherworldly eyes,
I fantasize!
CHORUS 2
I could have danced all night
And twirled in flight
To breakfast at sunrise
And memorized your eyes.
…memorized your eyes.
VERSE 3
You float into a room
And it begins to bloom
The swirling satin dress
You are gentleness.
VERSE 4
No one really knows
Where the Moon river flows
Cross oceans and soon
Fall in love(pause) over the moon
CHORUS
I could have danced all night
And twirled in flight
To breakfast at sunrise
And memorized your eyes
…memorized your eyes
BRIDGE
Oh That moon river rhyme
Farries us to elegance – sometimes – sometimes
Elegance will save our age
Even when we lose the compass gauge
VERSE 5
Thanks for the memories
Of almost you and me
Still something in me longs
When I hear your songs
CHORUS
I could have danced all night
And twirled in flight
To breakfast at sunrise
And memorized your eyes
Memorized your eyes
