Lyrics:

To spend one night with you
In our old rendezvous
Cherie, I love you so
That's my desire

To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
Cherie, I love you so
That's my desire

To sip a little glass of wine
I'll gaze into your eyes divine
To feel the warmth of your lips
Pressing on my own

To spend one night with you
In our old rendezvous
Cherie, I love you so
That's my desire

Ba da da

Cheri, Cheri, woo woo woo woo
Desire, desire woo woo woo woo
Desire
