Verse.
Now he has got me mumbling out loud, about the way he makes me never wanna go. I am like a kid running in a candy store, I am like the dancehall queen on the floor. Doesn’t have to be the coolest guy in town, but he has to be a kisser and a lover, yes, yes, yes I will love him I know, I guess that’s why I am mumbling loud.
Chorus.
Does he love me, does he love me not. Will he kiss me, tonight?
Will he come my prince charming on a white horse, and carry me away to the far away lands where the grass is green and the skies are blue.
Verse.
And when the time is ripe under the mango tree, I’ll take his hand so we can take a walk far away. Sweet, sweet dreams they are made of these, and this is what keeps tumbling out of my lips, Oh, I am a dreamer I know, but I am a lover too, and I want him to know me as a mother ooh,
Well, I guess time will tell, until then I will keep mumbling out.
Chorus.
