Lyrics
Kissing like a bandit stealing time
Underneath a sycamore tree
Cupid by the hour sends Valentines
To my sweet lover and me
Slowly, but surely
Your appetite is more than I knew
Sweetly, softly
I’m falling in love with you
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers
Hugging like a monkey see monkey do
Right beside a riverboat gambler
Erotic images float through my head
So I wanna be your midnight rambler
Quickly, loudly
I feel the blood rushing through my veins
Quickly, loudly
I wanna hear those sugar bells ring
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers
Wish me love a wishing well
Wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well
To kiss and tell
A wishing well
A wishing well of butterfly tears
