about

Pure unadulterated love

lyrics

If I had an airplane when it cold I would take you away
To some tropical hide-away
We could swim in the sea or lay in bed all day

I don’t want to eat strawberry pie
I only want to be with you
I don’t want to go to sleep at night
I only want to be with you

If I had a steam train well the heat from your kiss
would power the engine
But we’d ride the rails far too hard
And laugh as we crash cause we’re together

I don’t want to eat no butter tart
I only want to be with you
I don’t want to eat your little heart
I only want to be with you

If I had a motor car I would pick you up oh wherever you are
I would drive across the ocean even though it’s impossible

Don’t want to taste no caramel
I only want to be with you
Don’t want to trap or hold you there
I only want to be with you
