A Tiki Torch for You
I let you slip away without a kiss
Wish I could call you an old flame
Got Hawaiian hot watchin' your sexy moves
I've only got myself to blame
At Imperial Palace, you tried to get me to dance
I was too shy, but now I've got a second chance
I still carry a tiki torch for you
Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review
You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew
But I still carry a tiki torch for you
Who would've thought that after all these years
We'd meet again for Mai Tai's by the pool
In this concrete jungle with crab rangoon
If I passed you up again I'd be a fool
Should've shot for the moon, when you first swooned way back then
Now we're both back so take my hand and let's try again
'Cause I still carry a tiki torch for you
Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review
You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew
But I still carry a tiki torch for you
The beat of the drums, the heat of hip-swaying rhythms
All-you-can-eat luau delicacies
You're as exotic as ever, it's now or never
I promise to be gentlemanly
Now here we are under desert palms and stars
My dream came true, I kissed you by the beachcomber bar
I still carry a tiki torch for you
Now you're dancin' so close, it's givin' me the big bamboo
We might move a little slower, coconuts hang a little lower, it's true
We may be older, but my torch will never smolder for you
Wish I could call you an old flame
Got Hawaiian hot watchin' your sexy moves
I've only got myself to blame
At Imperial Palace, you tried to get me to dance
I was too shy, but now I've got a second chance
I still carry a tiki torch for you
Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review
You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew
But I still carry a tiki torch for you
Who would've thought that after all these years
We'd meet again for Mai Tai's by the pool
In this concrete jungle with crab rangoon
If I passed you up again I'd be a fool
Should've shot for the moon, when you first swooned way back then
Now we're both back so take my hand and let's try again
'Cause I still carry a tiki torch for you
Since I saw you dancin' in that Polynesian review
You're just a flirt in a grass skirt who I once knew
But I still carry a tiki torch for you
The beat of the drums, the heat of hip-swaying rhythms
All-you-can-eat luau delicacies
You're as exotic as ever, it's now or never
I promise to be gentlemanly
Now here we are under desert palms and stars
My dream came true, I kissed you by the beachcomber bar
I still carry a tiki torch for you
Now you're dancin' so close, it's givin' me the big bamboo
We might move a little slower, coconuts hang a little lower, it's true
We may be older, but my torch will never smolder for you
