When I first saw Yvonne, volcanoes erupted And her laughter flowed into my life She seemed so right, nothing wrong Everything about her was so strong So I waited for the magic to start Somebody touch me deep in my heart
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on She said, "Hold on You're not the only one" And so I said, "You're wrong Yvonne"
When I saw her again, I was caught in a landslide But I didn't dare let it show Her ruby lips were teasing me But jealousy would never let us be So I waited for the magic to start But I know it's gonna tear us apart
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on She said, "Hold on You're not the only one" And so I said, "You're wrong Yvonne"
She'll never know how much I loved her I never got to tell We never had the chance to say farewell
When I last saw Yvonne She was covered in roses But the laughter had gone from her eyes She walked so tall, looked so grand Everything about her truly planned But what you get is not what you see "So long Yvonne you're not fooling me"
Yvonne's the one I've been counting on She said, "Hold on, you're not the only one" And so I said, "So long Yvonne"
