Love Potion
I'm buying love potion number nine.
I really want you to be mine.
But first, love potion number eight.
To make sure you are straight.
I already gave you number seven.
You will bring me to seventh heaven.
Number six was last week.
To ensure you will never cheat.
Five, I slipped in on the sly.
In case you ever say goodbye.
Four for you to knock on my door.
Make you want to meet me more.
Three just to make you see.
The perfect match you have in me.
Two just after I saw you.
Wanting you to see me too.
One, it seems so long ago.
Love at first sight.
