Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello, honey, this is your lucky day
I've come to take you far, far away
We'll use love as our guide to the stars
And if I'm lucky I'll put a thrill in your heart

Come intothis Wonderland of mine
This Wonderland of mine, girl
And I'll take control of your beautiful mind
I can't tell you,
Girl, just what to expect
Some times I don't know myself
Whoa, the joy you give is the pleasure you get

Won't you come into this land of love
Come on, baby
Won't you come into this love with me
Won't you come into this love of mine
It's for you and for me

Mr. Taxi driver, could you give us a ride
And take us down to
Paradise Drive Hurry, won't you hurry 'cause I just can't wait
Oh, one minute lost might be one minute too late

Sugar, don't you be afraid, no, no
Just take me by the hand and I'll show you the way

It's for you and for me
It's for you, baby
All I need, all I ever needed was you

Whoa, girl, let me take you to a
Wonderland
Got so many thing we can do, girl




It's for you, it's for me, that's how it's gonna be in Wonderland
It's for you, it's for me, that's how it's gonna be in Wonderland
