In Istanbul

Been a long time, been a long time, been a long time with you
Been a long time, been a long time, since I first set eyes on you

A thousand million starry eyes, staring back at me
Oh I can see you baby, I can see you,
I see the wonderland in each of you

I gotta boat, I gotta drink, I’m comin’ cross, gonna toast you all
Come a long way baby, oh I’ve come a long way
I drove a blue light through a red light to get to you
Oh Istanbul

She’s full of spice baby an’ she’s makin’ me flirt
Makes a sound, sounds like diggin’ up dirt
Golden skin showing where she’s been
You put her in a song, you just sing! Sing! Sing!
Look at you, what do you do?
You make a face and you make me laugh
It’s so crazy, living here baby

Oh baby
You drive me crazy goin’
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah – in Istanbul

Rock ‘n’ roll sittin’ on my plate
I gotta sing oh honey I can’t wait
‘Cos a small clown walking round the town
A short cut baby an’ he’s man-hood bound

So,
C’mon c’mon, c’mon c’mon, I just fell in love and don’t ask me why
C’mon c’mon, c’mon c’mon, ‘cos it’s so crazy, living here baby
In Istanbul
In Istanbul

So love me Istana, love me right here and now
Lloving me can only make red eyes outta blue
Look up an’ see the moon and star
Shining down from where ever you are
It’s so crazy, living here baby

Oh baby
You drive me crazy goin’ yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In Istanbul

It’s so crazy, living here baby, it’s so crazy, living here baby
It’s so crazy, living here baby

Oh baby

You drive me crazy goin’ yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In Istanbul
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In Istanbul
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In Istanbul
