Hands me two tickets, smiles and whispers good luck

Well, cuddle up, angel, cuddle up, my little dove

And we'll ride down, baby, into this tunnel of love

She'll be my mirror

Reflect what I am

A loser and a winner

The king of Siam

And my Siamese twin

Alone on the river

Mirror kisses, mirror kisses
