Midnight at the oasis
|
Send your camel to bed
|
Shadows paintin' our faces
|
Traces of romance in our heads
|
|
Heaven's holdin' a half-moon
|
Shinin' just for us
|
Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon
|
And kick up a little dust
|
|
Come on, Cactus is our friend
|
He'll point out the way
|
Come on, 'til the evenin' ends
|
'Til the evenin' ends
|
|
You don't have to answer
|
There's no need to speak
|
I'll be your belly dancer, prancer
|
And you can be my sheik
|
|
[Instrumental Interlude]
|
|
I know your Daddy's a sultan
|
A nomad known to all
|
With fifty girls to attend him, they all send him
|
Jump at his beck and call
|
|
But you won't need no harem, honey
|
When I'm by your side
|
And you won't need no camel, no no
|
When I take you for a ride
|
|
Come on, Cactus is our friend
|
He'll point out the way
|
Come on, 'til the evenin' ends
|
'Til the evenin' ends
|
|
Midnight at the oasis
|
Send your camel to bed
|
Got shadows paintin' our faces
|
And traces of romance in our heads
|
|
Oh, come on...
