A chorale is a piece of music sung by a choir
Oh what a thrill! Hot chills When love's spilling over, Bedding down in clover. Restless desire hell's fire Inspires me to be reckless Leaves me reelin', breathless. Whenever I feel your touch The world becomes a ball of flame. Cut the cards and spill the dice, Rendez-vous in paradise: Let's play thrill-seekers' games! Playing the fool too cool! Merely misbehaving (Rules were made for breaking). Whatever the dare who cares! Feats electrifying, Almost death-defying. Whenever I kiss your lips My world becomes a blazing sun. Pull the plug and take a chance, Bet your pants on our romance: Let's have thrill-seekers' fun! Let's make a toast, our boast: To keep the corks a-poppin', party without stopping. the cat in the hat is back; This infatuation It's intoxicating. Whenever I hold you close The sounds of revels fill my thoughts. Down the wine and up the bets: Bacchanal and baccarat. Let's play thrill-seekers' sports! Whatever life brings, we'll sing. If music surrounds us Nothing can confound us. Passion's a giddy thing: Quietus and crescendo, Throw caution out the window. The turn of the roulette wheel Will spin us through a silvery night. Dazzle and dizzy us, Leave us quite vertiginous. Let's scale thrill-seekers' heights! |
