Lyrics:

(Verlaine) I guess I got romantic notions, I need a love, a love like the ocean, You look so sweet, you seem so fine, Naturally, I wish you were mine. She says 'I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin' No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin' No, I don't know why.' Consider the lilies of the field, and how they grow, I'm just like that, but I'm more slow, I need a love that's tender and true, I need a love, someone like you. She says 'I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin' No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin' No, I don't know why, I don't know why.' I wish I had another life, To show you how I feel, I'm hoping that my luck is good, I know my love is real. Kaleidescopin'... Kaleidescopin'... I guess I got romantic notions, I need a love, a love like the ocean, You look so sweet, you seem so fine, Naturally, I wish you were mine. She says 'I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin' No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping, When you could be kaleidescopin'
