         D
Let the sun beat through the clouds,
Let me kiss you on the mouth.
All my childhood toys
with chew marks in your smile.

Let me hold your syrup close to mine.
Let me watch you, Hollywood and Vine.
And I want you like the movies,
 touch me now.

Chorus:
C
I love you crazy, just keep on.
I love you madly, just keep watch.
You wipe my lips,
You turn me on.
C                  C#        D
My attentions are turned to you

Did I dream you were a tourist
in the Arizona sun?
I can see you there with luna moths
and watermelon gum.

I woke up in the sleeping bag,
With nowhere else to run.
You're standing in the bathroom
telling me its all in fun.

Chorus

I can whisper in your ear,
I can write a calendar year
I can wing around your Saturn smile,
a trial balloon

I have walked the tension wire line
And I learned to disrespect the signs
And I want you like a Pisces rising,
key the move

Chorus

You
You
You
