Lyrics for Cadence and Cascade
Cadence and Cascade Kept a man named Jade Cool in the shade While his audience played, purred, whispered Spend us, too, we only serve for you Sliding, mystified On the wine of the tide Stared pale-eyed As his veil fell aside Sad paper courtesan They found him just a man Caravan hotel Where the sequin spell fell Custom of the game Cadence oiled in love Licked his velvet gloved hand Cascade kissed his name Sad paper courtesan They knew him just a man Cadence and Cascade Cadence and Cascade Cadence
