Yeah, oh-ye-yeah
Yeah
Add a little sugar, honeysuckle and a great big expression of happiness
Boy, you couldn't miss with a dozen roses
Such would astound you the joy of children laughing around you
These are the makings of you, it is true the makings of you
Ooh
I'm so lucky that you're all mine, like a shooting star
We're in heaven and it feels right
Ooh, the things that you do
That keeps me falling for you
Hard
Boy, let me tell you the truth, I'll always love you
You got that touch, that love, that's settin' me on fire
And I'll give you my life (give you my life)
Anything that you ask me
