When I was young,
   way back in Sicily
   you should have seen me
   My hair then was long
   There was this one young man
   who always came around
   and gave me this ribbon of velvet brown
  
   Waiting for Valentino
   His dark eyes lock on mine
   Waiting for Valentino
  
   Then you did what you were told
   Married a cousin I didn't know
   He'd fallen in love with my photograph
   Oh why, worked harder then I could bare
   and he never seemed to care
   I bore his only son at the end of that year
  
   There is a place I can slip away to
   out in the desert of sand and dune
   My she's tan; she looks like a mirage
   Someday I'll escape there like Scherazade
  
   Waiting for Valentino
   His dark eyes lock on mine
   Waiting for Valentino
   To carry me off through time
  
   I had lived long as I can
   Made three generations American
   Now my daughter takes my hand
   and whispers to me
  
   There is a place I can slip away to
   out in the desert of sand and dune
   My she's tan; she looks like a mirage
   Someday I'll escape there like Scherazade
  
   Waiting for Valentino
   His dark eyes lock on mine
   Waiting for Valentino
   To carry me off through time
   To carry me off through time
   To carry me off through time
   To carry me off through time
