[Intro]
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
[Verse 1]
Flying kites with boy wonder
Hold tight to me all summer
Reading my magazines
Dancing in my blue jeans
[Pre-Chorus]
Pucker up in sunglasses
Making love to the flashes
Posing the way that we do for everybody to see
Polaroid through your lashes
Only thing that will last is...
[Chorus]
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
Tomorrow always happens too soon
I wish I had an electric moon to save the light
[Interlude]
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
Save the light
[Verse 2]
Fireworks, and night streamers
Baby blue, with the day dreamers
Underwater, close to me
Hold my breath in my blue jeans
[Pre-Chorus]
Pucker up in sunglasses
Making love to the flashes
Posing the way that we do for everybody to see
Polaroid through your lashes
Only thing that will last is...
[Chorus]
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
Tomorrow always happens too soon
I wish I had an electric moon to save...
[Bridge]
I wanna live tonight
I wanna save the light
And it goes on, and on, and on
And we go on, and on, and on
I wanna live, we wanna live
I wanna live tonight
I wanna save the light
And it goes on, and on, and on
And we go on, and on, and on
I wanna live, we wanna live
[Outro]
And tonight...
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
And tonight...
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
Tomorrow always happens too soon
I wish I had an electric moon to save the light
(Hoo-hoo-hoo)
