I'm outta luck---, outta love---. Got a photograph, picture of---

A passion killer, you're too much.  You're the only one I wanna touch.

I see your face every time I dream.  On every page, every magazine.

So wild, so free, so far from me.  You're all I want, my fantasy.

Photograph - All I've got is a photograph; but it's not enough.

 

I'd be your lover, if you were there.  Put your hurt on me, if you dare.

Such a woman, you got style.  You make every man feel like a child.

You got some kinda hold on me.  You're all wrapped up in mystery.

So wild so free so far from me.  You're all I want, my fantasy.
