No one here
Venus and Mars
And a skyful of stars
It's been a slo-mo year
A few stolen kisses
And several near misses
  I wait (wish my mission was clearer)
  For the cherub's arrow
  Hesitate (one last look in the mirror)
  My lappels are narrow
    Down the stairs and hit the street
    The bravado's just pretend though
    And the chic spot where we met
    Is called Innuendo

You and I
Birds of a feather
We ought to know better
We're cool and shy
Love is outrageous
But highly contagious
  We wait (while our salads are dressing)
  For the cherub's arrow
  You look great (cappuccino compressing)
  To Ravel's Bolero
    It would surely be a shame
    If the evening had to end though
    We're both masters of the game
    Known as Innouendo

If you believe in love
Prepare for stormy weather
Guess I should heed my own advice
I can't believe that love
Would bring us back together
'Cause lighting never strikes the same place twice

Candlelight
And saying "I've missed you"
Confuses the issue
This summer night
The cabdriver chuckles
We smell honeysuckle
  Too late (guess the poison got stronger)
  It's the cherub's arrow
  We can't wait (to make love any longer)
  Guess it's now or never
    And this happiness we feel
    As we move to the crescendo
    Makes the dialogue all real
    Not just innuendo
    No more innuendo
