How Long Has This Been Going On |
As a tot, when I trotted in little velvet panties, |
I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my aunties. |
Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than Dante’s. |
So my dear I swore, |
«Never, never more!» |
On my list, I insisted that kissing must be crossed out. |
Now, I find I was blind, and oh my! |
How I lost out! |
I could cry salty tears, |
Where have I been all these years? |
Little wow, tell me now, |
How long has this been going on? |
There were chills up my spine, |
And some thrills I can’t define. |
Listen, sweet, I repeat, |
How long has this been going on? |
Oh, I feel that I could melt, |
Into Heaven I’m hurled! |
I know how Columbus felt, |
Finding another world. |
Kiss me once, then once more. |
What a dunce I was before. |
What a break! |
For Heaven’s sake! |
How long has this been going on? |
Dear, when in your arms I creep, |
That divine rendezvous, |
Don’t wake me, if I’m asleep, |
Let me dream that it’s true! |
Kiss me twice, then once more. |
That makes thrice, let’s make it four! |
What a break! |
For Heaven’s sake! |
How long has this been going on? |
How long has this, been going on? |
