Lyrics
Aw Honey you, you took me to the border
Honey you, ya led me all the way
You captured my heart with the spark of your smile
I was imprisoned at once by the lust in your eye
I could do nothing but think of you night and day
And I dreamt that we'd be as one someday
Aw Honey you, ya stood right on the border
Honey you, you held my hand to stay
We stood with wonder and gazed at a future so bright
Amazed that fantasy turned reality that night
I was entranced by every move that you made
And I hoped that that this moment in time would not fade
And then...
Just one step, One small step, One big step, that night...
Honey you, you took me across the border
Honey you, you've led me all the way
I am trapped by our love, please don't set me free
I am bound by our love's intensity
I'm still "thinking of you" every night and day
And I know that our flame burns true today
Aw honey you...
