No More Telephone
Fog and Ocean Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She dashed by me in painted on jeans
And all heads turned 'cause she was the cream
In the blink of an eye I knew her number and her name, yeah
She said I was the tiger she wanted to tame

Caribbean queen
Now we're sharing the same dream
And our hearts they beat as one
No more love on the run

I lose my cool when she steps in the room, mmm
And I get so excited just from her perfume, mmm
Electric eyes that you can't ignore
And passion burns you like never before, mmm, mmm, mmm

I was in search of a good time
Just running my game, yeah
Love was the furthest
Furthest from my mind, yeah

Caribbean queen (can you give me love?)
Now we're sharing the same dream (don't wanna stop)
And our hearts they beat as one (ooh)
No more love on the run
I love ya, I need ya

Caribbean queen (can you give me love?)
Now we're sharing the same dream (don't wanna stop)
And our hearts they beat as one (ooh, yeah)
No more love on the run
Ah, mmm, mmm, mmm, yeah

Caribbean queen (can you give me love?)
Now we're sharing the same dream (ooh, don't stop)
And our hearts they beat as one (oh, lady, my baby)
No more love on the run
(Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Caribbean queen (can you give me love?)
Now we're sharing the same dream (ooh, don't stop)
And our hearts they beat as one (oh, lady, my baby)
No more love on the run
(Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, yeah, ohh
She's the cream
My Caribbean queen, yeah, yeah





I said, she dashed by me in painted jeans
