Released by 10cc on album "Mirror" - June 1995
WHEN I FIRST SAW YVONNE, VOLCANOES ERUPTED
AND HER LAUGHTER FLOWED INTO MY LIFE.
SHE SEEMED SO RIGHT, NOTHING WRONG,
EVERYTHING ABOUT HER WAS SO STRONG
SO WAITING FOR THE MAGIC TO START,
SOMEBODY TOUCHED ME DEEP IN MY HEART.
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN DREAMING OFF.
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE,
AND SO I SAID, YOU'RE WRONG, YVONNE.
WHEN I SAW HER AGAIN, I WAS CAUGHT IN A LANDSLIDE
BUT I DIDN'T DARE LET IT SHOW.
HER RUBY LIPS WERE TEASING ME
BUT JEALOUSY WOULD NEVER LET US BE,
SO WAITING FOR THE MAGIC TO START,
WE KNOW IT'S GONNA TEAR US APART.
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN DREAMING OFF.
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE,
AND SO I SAID, YOU'RE WRONG, YVONNE.
SHE'LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVED HER,
I NEVER GOT TO TELL.
WE NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO SAY FAREWELL,
WHEN I LAST SAW YVONNE
SHE WAS COVERED IN ROSES,
BUT THE ? GONE FROM HER EYES.
SHE WALKED SO TALL, SHE LOOKED SO GRAND
BUT EV'RYTHING ABOUT HER COULD BE PLANNED
BUT WHAT YOU GET IS NOT WHAT YOU SEE .
SO LONG YVONNE, YOU'RE NOT FOOLING ME
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN COUNTING ON,
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE,
AND SO I SAID, SO LONG, YVONNE.
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN COUNTING ON,
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE.
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN COUNTING ON,
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE,
AND SO I SAID, SO LONG, YVONNE.
YVONNE'S THE ONE I'VE BEEN COUNTING ON,
SHE SAID, HOLD ON,
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE.
