Who can fly my heart like a bamboo kite Make it twirl and gyrate just like a gyro delight Only you can oh ho only you Who can see as far as an eagle bird See right thru my head thru my every word Only you can oh ho only you Only you have a right to me you ohh Only you come home every night every night eh hey yeah Who can strum a tune by the light of the moon Make me love like you do in the afternoon Only you can oh ho only you Only you can . . . Only you have a right to me you ohh . . . Who can strum a tune by the light of the moon . . .
