O how long can love seriously take?

Although my baking is a work of art
I want love with a man instead of cake

I want a tall handsome man that’s not fake
That would be a really great place to start
O how long can love seriously take?

My man has to give all the girls heartache
And with some manners that are off the chart
I want love with a man instead of cake

We would then have a picnic by the lake
He would surprise me with strawberry tart
O how long can love seriously take?

Please, please Cupid can you give me a break?
You know how I like them, brown-eyed and smart
I want love with a man instead of cake

I’m starting to go crazy, for God’s sake!
I want to feel love before I depart
O how long can love seriously take?
I want love with a man instead of cake
