i'm stepping out in the sunshine with Daisy, Lily, and Rose
we'll be making a beeline to love wherever it grows
Daisy has seen the dark side, Daisy's had her darkest day
but now Daisy faces the bright side
the sun is shining Daisy's way
i'm stepping out in the sunshine with Daisy, Lily, and Rose
we'll be making a beeline to love wherever it grows
Lily, oh Lily, bent in sorrow, holding herself so tight
but Lily gets a new tomorrow
Lil's reaching up to the light
i'm stepping out in the sunshine with Daisy, Lily, and Rose
we'll be making a beeline to love wherever it grows
Rose is Rose is all she knows, you can't get close to Rose
but Daisy, and Lily, and i'll be there
when Rose is blooming again
i'm stepping out in the sunshine with Daisy, Lily, and Rose
we'll be making a beeline to love wherever it grows
to love wherever it grows

Turn Out That Light!

before you turn out the lights...
bring that dog in no more barkin'
give her treats she likes to eat
but before you close the door
let the cat out!
let that cat out she's been meowin'
pet her fur and make her purr
after that here's one more thing, dear
kiss the baby!
kiss the baby, rock her gently
sing her a lullaby
tuck her in then tiptoe out
and never make her cry
check the windows, close the curtains
lock the door, turn out that light!
and one more sumpthin' 'fore you jump in
say goodnight!

Deep Kisses

|
deep kisses, i'd gladly drown
in your deep kisses
i'm going down
falling, calling your name
deep kisses, swallow me whole
deep kisses, sing to my soul
one with you
what two can do
deep kisses
i want to keep descending in deep kisses
until i can sleep
and wake again to take in the deep kisses
what two can do
what two can do

and i aim to prove the theory is true

i can't get enough honey
where can my baby be?
i can't get enough honey
honey, come back to me
did the buzz die down?
yes, the buzz died down
did the buzz die down?
yes, the buzz died down
now i can't get enough honey
where can my baby be?
what's happened to my garden? what happened over the hill?
somebody's prowling my flowers, somebody's in for the kill
come in handsome and flirty, always got something to hide
now they're doing the dirty down by the riverside
now i can't get enough honey
where can my baby be?
i can't get enough honey
honey, come back to me
did the buzz die down?
yes, the buzz died down
did the buzz die down?
yes, the buzz died down
now i can't get enough honey
where can my baby be?
used to be nectar flowing, used to be hum in the hive
something in the seed they're sowing
and somebody's talking some jive
now i can't get enough honey
where can my baby be?
i can't get enough honey
honey, come back to me

Back in Time
03:08
|
|||
|
i'm going back in time
oh, my darling, when you were mine
transistor on the beach
your legs in reach of my sandy feet
i've got a sweet machine
and it's cranking out timely dreams
of the ocean rushing to your thighs
sparkle suns in your sparkling eyes
now i can only think of then
remember how it was, remember when
then we were living in the now and then we'd kiss
and kiss again
i hope i'm not too late
oh, my darling, i cannot wait
set the dial to the date
back in time when you were mine

Christmas This Year

ding dong she doo wop a-ring-a-ding
ding dong she doo wop a-ring-a-ding
let's take it nice and easy for Christmas this year
try a little tenderness for Christmas this year
wrap your arms around me in the still of the night
and in the wee, small hours of the morning, 'neath the Christmas lights
i'll have the world on a string
i can't deny it
all i want for Christmas is peace
and quiet
bless the poets, the paupers, the pipers
the queens
and the king
and listen to those Christmas bells
ding dong she doo wop a-ring-a-ding
ding dong she doo wop a-ring-a-ding ding!
