Yeah
I got a wild thing for you
We’re talking hoops you got me jumping through
You got those lemon drop martini eyes
And if my karma suits you, cross the line into another place and time
Tell me how pretty she is when she turns the colors of the rainbow
One more day with you, trip hoppin’, yeah
One more night with you, no stoppin’, yeah
Ain’t no smokin’ fantasy ’cause lovin’ you is trippin’ to me
You got me psychodelisized
You got my situation bone-a-fide
It took a sunset to get me to see
That I all really needed was your love to, yeah, forever shine on me
You promised promiscuity is like waiting for your ecstasy
That one more day with you, trip hoppin’, yeah
One more night with you, no stoppin’, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get my way with you, trip hoppin’
In my kaleidoscope, I’m looking through
My only color was a neon blue
I was hanging on to yesterday and now the only way I get through
(One more night with you)
(One more day won’t do)
Yeah
How beyond the rainbow is my laying on your emerald pillow
One more day with you, trip hoppin’
One more night with you, no stoppin’, yeah, yeah
Ain’t no smokin’ fantasy ’cause lovin’ you is trippin’ to me
One more day with you, trip hoppin’
(Trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’, trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’)
One more night with you, no stoppin’
(Trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’, trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’)
Get my way with you, trip hoppin’
(Trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’, trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’)
One more day with you, trip hoppin’
(Trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’, trip hoppin’, hip hoppin’)
One more night with you, trip hoppin’
One more day won’t do, trip hoppin’
One more night with you, trip hoppin’
One more day won’t do, trip hoppin’
One more night with you, yeah
One more day won’t do
