A Fantastic Time Already - Kari Bremnes

They went to see Paris it was the 17th of May

And now as ever she was late

And now as ever she complained about the seating

And the salmon was the worst she ever ate

He was a little bit too easy

A little bit too happy she could see

He sees them sitting at a sidewalk restaurant

And it is spring and they are young and they are free

She said that if we hope to see it all within a week

We better make a plan and keep it steady

He said: I’m having a fantastic time already

They were going to a party just before the end of March

And now as ever she was late

And now as ever she’s unhappy with her hair

And wonders how he got his shoes in such a state

He was a little bit too easy

A little bit too happy for her taste

He sees them opening a bottle of champagne

And they are joining in a lovers' sweet embrace

She said that if this evening was to turn out as they planned

He’d better play his part and play it steady

He said: I’m having a fantastic time already

He was about to leave her, it was February fifth

And now as ever she was late

And now as ever she would speak of their affair,

She says, she simply can’t accept this as their fate

He was a little bit too easy

A little bit too happy, she would moan

He sees himself in an apartment down the road

Where he can dream his dreams in peace and be alone

She said to him I’ll show you we can have good times again

But only if you play the straight and steady

He said: I’m having a fantastic time already
