Fever - the heat of the night
Dreamer - stealer of sighs
Fever - the heat of the night
Dreamer - stealer of sighs
Kiss and tell
We never lie
Kiss and tell
Eye for an eye
Kiss and tell

Kiss and tell
Kiss me again
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
Kiss and tell
