Saint Etienne - Calico lyrics
[the "calico" bits are sarah and the rest is q-tee.]
Dreamin' / that you are in my world/
Wishin' / like a little girl. /
Watchin'/ closely/ you suddenly appear. /
Like a dream/ you're gonethen you're here. /
You take to emotion / like a bird to flight. /
You drop an invitation/ maybe I just might /
Be your lover / or better / a friendly / aquaintance. /
Truly as I duly pay my love to you like maintenance. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
You're realistic/ your face conceal. /
Accentuate the passion. / I will reveal. /
You're like an angel that delights with the day. /
I'm pleadin' / don't ever go away/
Story's reaching peak / the outlook is bleak. /
Please talksay that you'll speak. / you're strong and I am weak. /
I need / the fortune at the end of the rainbow. /
I see you like a lantern - / you have a certain glow. / calico. /
Your smile is warm soft/ forever / appealing. /
Whenever you are present like a letter I am sealing. /
My love / like a dove / that blesses from above. /
The shower in an hour / won't you let me be your towel? / calico. /
Affection / affects you like a weapon. /
You're extreme and supreme / and nothing that you seem. /
A fateful chance / with a twist of hope. /
I'll be with you all the way / down the magical slope.
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Babedon't be afraid/ I'm wit' you everywhere. /
Gliding through enchanted waters / to you I swear. /
Expression is the key/ it's good enough for me. /
Cali can't you see/ forever yours? /
There's a feeling / of warmth/ a serious / sensation. /
It's true/ you have that / good vibration.
Your charm is overwhelmingyou have reaches that I seldom see/
Calico just let me be the one! /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico/ calico/ calico/ calico. /
Calico. / I see / that we were meant to be. /
Goin' in ? ? ?
[outro samples:]
I never take of my hat except when I'm out of doors!
She made a prize from jenkins' ear/ and washed it down with a bottle of beer.
