Lyrics"A Tiki Torch For You"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
I let you slip away without a kiss Wish I could call you an old flame Got Hawaiian hot watchin' your sexy moves I've only got myself to blame At Imperial Palace, you tried to get me to dance I was too shy, but now I've got a second chance I still carry a tiki torch for you Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew But I still carry a tiki torch for you Who would've thought that after all these years We'd meet again for Mai Tai's by the pool In this concrete jungle with crab rangoon If I passed you up again I'd be a fool Should've shot for the moon, when you first swooned way back then Now we're both back so take my hand and let's try again
'Cause I still carry a tiki torch for you Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew But I still carry a tiki torch for you The beat of the drums, the heat of hip-swaying rhythms All-you-can-eat luau delicacies You're as exotic as ever, it's now or never I promise to be gentlemanly Now here we are under desert palms and stars My dream came true, I kissed you by the beachcomber bar I still carry a tiki torch for you Now you're dancin' so close, it's givin' me the big bamboo We might move a little slower, coconuts hang a little lower, it's true We may be older, but my torch will never smolder for you Copyright © ℗ 2018 by Scott Cooley.
