VERSE 1
Ice cream cone in my hand
In a place known for its dry land
Fall can’t come sooner
But that’s not what’s on my mind
VERSE 2
Hiking the Appalachian Trail
On a regatta, watching you sail
Vacation can’t come sooner
I can’t wait til it’s over
PRE-CHORUS
Some things in this world are marvelous
Some things blow my mind
Some things pique my interest
But lately I find
CHORUS
I’ve never seen something so rapturous
So extremely dangerous
Your kiss is venomous
But I only ever want more of us
VERSE 3
Yachting easy in Saint-Tropez
Everyone here doing what I say
With a word I can dream my life away
Your smile can cure my heart today
VERSE 4
If I can go anywhere I’ll be where you are
If I had the power, you won’t be that far
Catch a flight, catch the moon, lasso a star
You’re my Helen of Troy, I’ll start a war
PRE-CHORUS
Some things in this world are marvelous
Some things blow my mind
Some things pique my interest
But lately I find
CHORUS
I’ve never seen something so rapturous
So extremely dangerous
Your kiss is venomous
But I only ever want more of us
BRIDGE
But you are fleeting, an image, a hoax
A dream, a nightmare, a warning from folks
Who knows of your schemes, your machinations
That bring down empires, kings and nations
CHORUS
I’ve never seen something so rapturous
So extremely dangerous
Your kiss is venomous
But I only ever want more of us
OUTRO
Take me up, take me high, darling do not delay
Take me down, take me now, I beg you to stay
Take me unprepared, if that’s the only way
Take me unexpected, in your own special way
