I used to be scared

of affection

but now I'm not

I used to go cold

at its mention

but now I go hot

I used to run a mile

if a girl

even began to smile

But I'm not afraid

any longer

one smile from you

and my love

grows stronger

I've a feeling of being

so up in the world

when I'm walking

out with you

Up in the world

is the feeling I get

even talking

about you

I confess that I tremble

at your touch, my dear

it's 'cause you're here

so near

If you'd say yes

then my eager lips

would press one kiss

that means so much to me

My plea is to be

tied to the strings

of your heart

make me feel that

I'm someone really new

Don't cut me loose

or my life falls apart

and I'm no-one

without you

I pray I've made

a good impression

you're my

obsession forever

Let our hearts

take flight together

up in the... world...
