Well, here we are again, tonight alone, just us two Where the lights are dim and true love is coming through. There's no one else in this whole world as far as we're concerned We built ourselves a fire so let it burn. When you look at me like you do right now I go to pieces Because I know what's on your mind it's just me You've got that love-me-look in your eyes Like you've had so many time and how Loving you could never be better than it is right now. Tomorrow night we'll meet again to once more fan the flame 'Cause loving you the way I do stays the same This love of ours is just as strong as any vow could be And love could never be better for you and me. When you look at me like you do right now I go to pieces Because I know what's on your mind it's just me You've got that love-me-look in your eyes Like you've had so many time and how Loving you could never be better than it is right now. Loving you could never be better than it is right now...

Honey honey, up in the trees Fields of flowers deep in his dreams Lead them out to sea by the east Honey honey, food for the bees Honey honey, out on the sea In the Doldrums thinking of me Me on dry land thinking of he Honey honey, not next to me Even if he wanted to Even if he wanted to Even if he wanted to Do you think he'll come back Would he come back Honey honey out on the sea In the Doldrums waiting for me Me in my boat searching for he Honey honey, food for the bees
