"Honey Party" lyrics - MADELEINE PEYROUX

MADELEINE PEYROUX
"Honey Party"
(David Baerwald / Larry Klein / Brian Macleod / Madeleine Peyroux / Patrick Warren)

I saw a handsome dancing bee under the flow'ring apple tree
Raising his butt up to the sky shaking his wings like a firefly
He wants to dance
He wants to share romance
'Cause he's going to a honey party

I asked him please show me the way to his field of flowers by the bay
But he would not let me follow behind until I danced with a different mind
He said: you've got to dance
You've got to share romance
If you're going to a honey party

And I woke up behind the sky in the arms of a man with a golden eye
The place a-buzz with every kind of sweet love, laughter and honey-wine
And I did dance
I did share romance
And I know about the honey party

Now I think back to that summer of song I thought would last my whole life long
I remember the love that made me strong and I'd be so glad if you'd come along
You've got to dance
You've got to share romance
If you're going to a honey party
