Cupid draw back your bow
And you let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Nobody but me

Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart, its for me

Now I don't need to bother you, but I'm in distress
There's dangerous of losing all of my happiness
But just between the two of us our love is concealed
So help me if you will

So, Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart, it's for me
Nobody but me

Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart, it's for me
Nobody but me

Cupid if you make your arrow, make it for me
I promise I will love you until eternity
But just between the two of us our love is concealed
So help me if you will

So, Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart, it's for me
Nobody but me

Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Nobody but me

I said, "Cupid, don't you hear me?"
I said, "Cupid, don't you hear me?"
Draw back that bow and let it go
Draw back that bow, let it go
Let it keep on going
Till it find my baby, yeah
Got to have my baby
Let it go, yeah
