(verse)
Dozens of girls would storm up;
I had to lock my door,
Somehow I couldn`t warm up
To one before.
What was it that controlled me?
What kept my lovelife lean?
My intuition told me
You`d come on the scene.
Lady, listen to the rhythm of my heartbeat,
And you`ll get just what I mean.
(refrain)
Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you!
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you!
Just one look at you, my heart grew tipsy in me;
You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me!
I love all the many charms about you!
Above all I want my arms about you.
Don`t be a naughty baby,
Come to papa, come to papa, do!
My sweet embraceable you!
