lyrics

Once upon a time long ago,
A boy and girl fell in love even though,
They knew the risk,
They were cannibals,
They could not afford to get too close,
They knew the risk,
They were afraid to kiss,
In case they ate each other whole.

Then one day he said,
I can't take this anymore,
It's, it's love or death he said,
I can't take this any more,

So kiss me, hold me and eat me,
Kiss me and hold me and eat me,
It's fatal I know,
But what a way to go,
It's fatal I know,
But what a way to go.

So kiss me though it means the end of my life,
And hold me though it means the end of my life,
And the sun will shine down on this our only kiss,
And I should run, for the hills but I can't resist,
And the sun will shine down on this our only kiss,
And I should run, for the hills but I can't resist.

Well she took him in her arms,
And said all this will be OK,
You're, you're more than food to me,
And I only eat my enemies,
And you are the best friend that I have,
I love you more than food,
And though a King would not taste half as good as you,
It's love I need you for,
It's love I need you for.

So kiss me, hold me and eat me,
Kiss me and hold me and eat me,
And the sun will shine down and this could be the start,
I'll take your hand and you can take my heart,
And the sun will shine down and this could be the start,
I'll take your hand and you can take my heart,
So kiss me, hold me and eat me,
Kiss me, hold me and eat me,
Kiss me and hold me and eat me,
Kiss me and hold me and eat me,
It's you that I love.
