Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And by the way have you forgotten
To say where you live, what's your name, what you do?
In case you're free, we can go, you and me
To the zoo
[Verse 2]
And may I ask you what to do with your days
With your nights, with your time, with your life?
Suppose I dared to ask what are you doing tonight?
If you're free I can lend you these wings for a flight
[Verse 3]
Haven't we met? I can't remember
But yet I could swear I have seen you before
But if you're scared of my boat, I can take you ashore
Or would you rather catch the wind
That blows steady and pulls to the high open sea
You are the force, that irresistible might
That creates in me the power of flight
[Verse 4]
We are kites in the sky
We can fly, we can fly, we can fly, we can fly
[Verse 5]
I get a flash of your thigh
Like a spy in the sky
I see that I have only thighs in the skies in disguise
There where the sea meets the sky
You and me, you and I
[Verse 6]
Give me a moment just to finish this brew
To undo the voodoo that gets you away
[Verse 7]
For so long (For so long)
For so long (For so long)
For oh long
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 8]
Suppose I give you this rose and you give me a kiss
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 9]
Suppose we take off our clothes and we plunge in the sea
And just dismiss with a kiss the petite bourgeois
[Verse 10]
Haven't we met? I can't remember
But yet I could swear I have seen you before
But if you're scared of my boat, I can take you ashore
Or would you rather catch the wind
That blows steady and pulls to the high open sea
You are the force, that irresistible might
That creates in me the power of flight
[Verse 11]
We are kites in the sky
We can fly, we can fly, we can fly, we can fly
[Verse 12]
I get a flash of your thigh
Like a spy in the sky
There where the sea meets the sky
You and me, you and I
[Verse 13]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
For so long
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
For so long
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
