I guess I got romantic notions,
|
I need a love, a love like the ocean,
|
You look so sweet, you seem so fine,
|
Naturally, I wish you were mine.

She says "I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,
|
When you could be kaleidescopin'
|
No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,
|
When you could be kaleidescopin'
|
No, I don't know why."
|
|
Consider the lilies of the field, and how they grow,
|
I'm just like that, but I'm more slow,
|
I need a love that's tender and true,
|
I need a love, someone like you.
|
|
She says "I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,
|
When you could be kaleidescopin'
|
No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,
|
When you could be kaleidescopin'
|
No, I don't know why,
|
I don't know why."
|
|
I wish I had another life,
|
To show you how I feel,
|
I'm hoping that my luck is good,
|
I know my love is real.
|
|
Kaleidescopin'...
|
Kaleidescopin'...

|
I guess I got romantic notions,
|
I need a love, a love like the ocean,
|
You look so sweet, you seem so fine,
|
Naturally, I wish you were mine.

She says "I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,

No, I don't know why you're wishing and hoping,
|
When you could be kaleidescopin'
