So far away, so like a dream A cup of tea with powdered cream Or comet dust and subway steam Or 3 kilos of mangosteen Ayaaah ayaaah mangosteen
An airport lounge in Amsterdam A summer rainfall in Japan Your cowboy hat, your lovely tan With you I'm such a happy man Ayaaah Ayaaah, a happy man
I hope one day I'm old with you We're holding hands like old folks do With knobby knees and funny shoes Yeah, that's the future I would choose Ayaaah Ayaaah I would choose
