They say that love often passes in a second And you can never catch it up So I'm hanging onto you as though eternity beckoned But it's clear that the match is rough Common sense'd tell me not to try and continue But I'm after a piece of that diamond in you So keep an eye open My spirit ain't broken Your love's so incredible Your body's so edible You give me an overdose of love But just a little is enough
I'm a connoisseur of champagne cognac The perfume nearly beats the taste I eat an oyster and I feel the contact But more than one would be a waste Some people want an endless line, that's true But all I have to have's a little time with you A smile sets me reeling A kiss feels like stealing Your love is like heroin This addict is mellowin' I can't pretend that I'm tough Just a little is enough
Just like a sailor heading into the seas There's a gale blowing in my face The high winds scare me, but I need the breeze And I can't head for any other place Life would seem so easy on the other tack But even a hurricane won't turn me back You might be an island On the distant horizon But the little I see Looks like heaven to me I don't care if the ocean gets rough Just a little is enough
Common sense'd tell me not to try and continue But I'm after a piece of that diamond on you So keep an eye open My spirit ain't broken Your love's so incredible Your body's so edible You give me an overdose of love A little is enough
