Venus kissed the moon tonight
We watched her in the sky
She's been flirtin' with him for centuries
Too bad, he's so shy

He's waxing, he's waining
You don't see Venus complaining
She'll steal a kiss whenever she can
Not 'til 2031 will this happen again

I kissed you in the taxicab
And touched your handsome face
I said, "I feel like a satellite
Away too long in space"

You roll down the window
To gain a clearer view
And now you're gazing at the Heaven
I'm gazing at you

2031 you say, "That's an eternity
So far away not to me
Time and distance make no difference
In this celestial love affair"

Oh you laugh and you hold me tight
Your eyes are shining bright
Like the luminescent street lights
Like those lovers way up there

Venus kissed the moon tonight
It's okay this is a leap year
Then she kept right on travelling
Centriphical force, my dear

He'll keep waxing and waining
You won't see Venus complaining
She'll steal a kiss whenever she can
This will happen again, this will happen again

Venus kissed the moon tonight
This will happen again
Venus kissed the moon tonight
This will happen again
Venus kissed the moon tonight
This will happen again
Venus kissed the moon tonight
