Susan Boyle

I must admit sometime I don't know what is going on in Britain and around the world. Last night, I was not able to sleep until early hours of morning. So I quickly checked emails. Saund was still online, saying she was watching Susan Boyle's song on youtube and sharing a link.

I did a quick research about Susan Boyle on Google. Here are some results.

Casablanca

I would say today is a lucky day. Such a long time, I have been looking for this song on the internet what I did enjoy a lot when I was young. You may have watched the classic film Casablanca. In this 1942 black and white movie, the song was not this one, but also good. The Casablanca song was also based on the film. I still remember the phrasal verb "go by" was learnt from this song. :)





Casablanca: by Bertie Higgins

I fell in love with you watching Casablanca
Back row of the drive in show in the flickering light
Popcorn and cokes beneath the stars became champagne and caviar
Making love on a long hot summers night

I thought you fell in love with me watching Casablance
Holding hands `neath the paddle fans in Rick`s Candle lit cafe
Hiding in the shadows from the spies. Moroccan moonlight in your eyes
Making magic at the movies in my old chevrolet

Oh! A kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh
Please come back to me in Casablanca
I love you more and more each day as time goes by

I guess there`re many broken hearts in Casablanca
You know I`ve never really been there. so, I don`t know
I guess our love story will never be seen on the big wide silver screen
But it hurt just as bad when I had to watch you go

Oh! A kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh
Please come back to me in Casablanca
I love you more and more each day as time goes by
Oh! A kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh

Please come back to me in Casablanca
I love you more and more each day as time goes by
I love you more and more each day as time goes by
