Lyrics: Saint Etienne. Calico.

Dreamin' that you are in my world
Wishin' like a little girl
Watchin', closely, you suddenly appear
Like a dream, you're gone, then you're here

You take to emotion like a bird to flight
Drop an invitation, maybe I just might
Be your lover or better a friendly acquaintance
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 talk, say 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

Babe, don't be afraid, I'm with 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 overwhelming, you 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 [Incomprehensible]

{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}
