lyrics

Woke up late, missed the alarm
Gotta buy a rooster if not a whole farm
Out on the town, paintin' it red
My honey prefers chartreuse instead

Sweetheart I love you
Come here and lie down
Let's get real cozy
Under the eiderdown

Tunnel of love leads through the dark
You’d be crazy to head in there on a lark
Why don’t you set back, read me the Times
I dig the news, least when it rhymes

Sweetheart I pledge you
My silent vow
Who needs forever?
We're loving right now

Remember that June in Libertyville?
Those grifters picked us clean
Under a velvet moon
Hey come back here with that spoon!

Bottle of wine, bucket o' gin
So I mixed 'em together, what, it's a sin?
Twist my hip, twist my knee
C'mon Prince, try and dance like me

Sweetheart I pledge you
My silent vow
Who needs forever?
We're loving right now

Caught your number on MTV
I think that was you, as a bumblebee?
You win the lottery every night
Tear up the ticket, turn out the light

Sweetheart I don't need
A nod or a sign
Might hop a freighter
But I’ll drop you a line
