Like a trip to paradise
A look this man can not ignore
Girl, I don't know what's on your mind
But I think you're really mine
So you must know I want you more
You are so beautiful
You make my heart a fool
When I take you in my arms
You are so beautiful
Your kisses sweet delight
They feel so wonderful
You're making this a magic night
Now, with your body burning mine
I don't mean to drink the wine
I'm not so high
Now, I can tell you how I feel
There's something so unreal
A fantasy you made come true
