The Kinks - Holiday Romance lyrics

[The Kinks - Holiday Romance lyrics]

I had a break for a week so I booked my seat
And confirmed a reservation
At a quiet little seaside hotel
I packed my bags and I caught my train and
Reached my destination
Just in time for the dinner gong -ding dong
Then I saw Lavinia
Standing at the bottom of the stairs
And I fell for Lavinia
The moment that I saw her standing there

Lavinia looked so divine
As she walked up to the table to dine
And then Lavinia's eyes met mine

I thought can this be love
Can this be lovey dove
Or just a holiday romance?
Can this be long lost love at last
Or is it just a flash in the pan?



Then after cheese and liqueurs they
Struck up the band
I plucked up my courage and
I asked Lavinia to dance
That was the start of my holiday romance
Just a holiday romance

We did the foxtrot
Samba and danced through the night
The last waltz came and we
Held each other so tight
That was the start of my holiday romance

Just a holiday romance
A simple holiday romance
I wonder should I take this chance?

We walked on the beach
And we paddled our feet
And we watched all the swimmers
And my holiday treat felt complete
We drank lemonade and we sat in the shade
I thought I must be on a winner
And I acted cool and discreet
For I knew that Lavinia
Was the shyest lady that I'd ever met
And I knew that Lavinia
Would only be my lady for the week

It was just a holiday romance
A simple holiday romance
I wonder should I take this chance?
Just a holiday romance can this be love
Can this be lovey dove
Or just a holiday romance?

I tried to kiss her, she walked away
She said "Better stop, my husband's
Coming to collect me today"
That was the end of my holiday
Sweet and innocent holiday
End of my holiday romance
