Kiss (kiss)
Kiss (kiss)
Kiss (kiss)
Mwah
Ohh, all night long

Gee it's cozy in the park tonight
When you cuddle up and hold me tight
Stars above, they seem to know
We're putting on a late late show
Hear the pretty music in the trees
See the flowers dancin' in the breeze
Old Man Moon begins to glow
He's joinin' in late, late show

Birds should be dreamin' (should be dreaming)
Start chirpin' a song (start chirpin' a song)
And wild fireflies gleamin' (and wild fireflies gleamin')
We kiss (kiss)
Kiss (kiss)
Kiss (kiss)
Mwah
Ohh, all night long

Then we amble back to my front door
Say good night and then we kiss some more
Did you know I like it so?
It started at late, late show

When you cuddle up and hold me so tight
Stars above, they seem to know, yeah
We're putting on a late late show

See the flowers dancin' in the breeze
Old Man Moon begins to glow
He's joinin' in late, late show

Birds they should be dreamin' (should be dreamin'
Startin' chirpin' a song (start-a chirpin' a song)
And wild fireflies gleamin' (gleamin')
We kiss (kiss)
Kiss (kiss)
Oh
Mwah
Baby, all night long

Then we amble back to my front door
Say good night and then we kiss some more
Did you know I like it so?
It started at late, late show

It started at late, late show, Marvin (yes, it did)
It started at late, late show 
And then you kissed me and you held me so tight, Marvin (ooh)
It's mellow, baby, ow 
It started at late, late show
Yes it did
