This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
As my silky body bounces like a ball,
you must come close and gently sweep me into your arms.
As my silky body bounces like a ball,
you must come close and gently sweep me into your arms.
This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
Knowing what pleasure lies wherever you touch,
your hands must touch me gently in all those places.
Writing sweet rhythms all over my body,
I want to receive pure joy as your gift.
Picking me up gently like a flower,
holding me body to body in your embrace,
Picking me up gently like a flower,
holding me body to body in your embrace,
leaving five or six love marks,
teach me that very first lesson of love.
Teach me that very first lesson of love.
This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
Opening without a knock,
giving without being asked,
isn't my young heart yours for all time?
Staying awake without sleep,
yearning in search of its companion,
isn't this young woman's heart
your bed of flowers?
Without needing to ask, you can take it;
you can come seeking this paradise.
You can string three hundred kisses on me,
and say my share of them is an equal half.
And say my share of them is an equal half.
This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
As my silky body bounces like a ball,
you must come close and gently sweep me into your arms.
This sweet intoxication that came today
is carrying me away to places unknown!
