This was the first song on the "Butterfly" album which Jon Peters produced for Barbra. It was controversial because of it's subject matter and its sexually explicit lyrics. But it was a great song. Barbra sand this song when she was very much in love, and you can tell.

Love in the Afternoon, Love in the Afternoon He walked right up and told me that he liked my style I noticed something different in the way he smiled He said "You're quite a lady and I know a place that's shady Would you like to come and lie with me awhile?" And deep in my soul I could feel a quiver Then he went down and found that sweet old river And he showed me the way to find love in the afternoon. I knew he was a stranger but I didn't care We had something in common but it wasn't clear He said that life's a lover when you love and like no other Don't you think it's time for you to get your share? And deep in my soul I could feel a quiver Then he went down and found that sweet old river And he showed me the way to find love in the afternoon. Mmmmmm… I never could remember or recall his name But I hang on to that memory just the same I know it makes me crazy, it makes my head all hazy To think about the way he played that game And deep in my soul I could feel a quiver Then he went down and found that sweet old river And he showed me the way to find love in the afternoon. Yes, deep in my soul, I could feel a quiver Then he went down and found that sweet old river And he showed me the way to find, Showed me and showed me and showed me The way to find love in the afternoon
