Adam West Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

hey, i like this spark between us
and i say, i like you where you are
and i like this sunny day
and like the way we play
and i like it when you say
i've gotta reach on down inside my pocket

whoah, what's inside my head
whoah, like words i've never said
whoah, down inside my soul
whaoh, but my heart is gold

hey, i'm always close to danger
and i say, i wear it like a coat
and you like the way i gloat
everytime i read your note




and you like it when the waves caress you
knock you down as they undress you
