[00:08.40]She struts into the room
[00:11.53]Well I don't know her
[00:16.31]But with a magnifying glance
[00:19.80]I just sort of looked her over hmm
[00:24.96]We have a drink or two
[00:27.89]Well maybe three
[00:30.21]
[00:32.69]And then suddenly she starts telling me
[00:36.40]Her life story

[00:41.52]Baby if you wanna be my lover
[00:44.57]

[00:47.83]
[00:50.99]'Cause it's a long long way to paradise
[00:54.95]
