Lyrics

When I'm dancing with Deseri
(Oo-ooo Deseri)
All the boys are jealous of me
(Deseri)
I'm as happy as I can be
Oh, Deseri
I'm as happy as I can be
(Oo-ooo Deseri)
Whenever I'm with Deseri
(Deseri)
She saves her lovin' just for me
Oh Deseri
I will never be untrue
I will never ever make her blue
She'll never sigh, cry, sit and pine
We will share a love divine
Deseri is mine
I'm as happy as I can be
(Oo-ooo Deseri)
Whenever I'm with Deseri
(Deseri)
'Cause she saves her lovin' just for me
Oh Deseri
Deseri...
(Deseri oo-ooo)
Deseri, the first day we met
(Deseri oo-ooo)
I'll never forget
(Deseri oo-ooo)
I saw you walking down the street
And my heart skipped a beat
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(Deseri)
I told you of my love for you
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(Deseri)
But theres nothing...
(Deseri oo-ooo)
Nothing you would do
(The one for me)
I said, please hear my plea
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(My-y Deseri)
Come dance with me
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(Please, hear my plea)
(Deseri oo-ooo)
Oh Deseri...
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(Come along with me)
You came
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(Aa-aah Deseri)
We went to the dance that night
I held you so tight
(Deseri oo-ooo)
(My-y Deseri)
(Deseri oo-ooo)
And I know...
(My-y Deseri)
That our love will last...
(Deseri oo-ooo)
Thru the years
(Deseri...)
For ever, holding each other, for cram & for dorssn.
