Venus, if you will,
Please send a little girl for me to thrill.
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms.
A girl with all the charms of you.
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Venus, make her fair,
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair.
And take the brightest stars up in the skies,
And place them in her eyes for me.
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Venus, goddess of love that you are,
(Ah-ah-ah.)
Surely the things I ask,
Can't be too great a task.
Venus, if you do,
I promise that I always will be true.
I'll give her all the love I have to give,
As long as we both shall live.
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Venus, goddess of love that you are,
(Ah-ah-ah.)
Surely the things I ask,
Can't be too great a task.
Venus, if you do,
I promise that I always will be true.
I'll give her all the love I have to give,
As long as we both shall live.
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Hey, Venus! (Oh-oh.) Oh, Venus. (Oh-oh.)
Make my wish come true.
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
(Ahhhh.)
