Love for sale
Advertising young love for sale
Love that’s fresh and still unspoiled
Love that’s only slightly soiled
Love for sale

Love for sale
Lots and lots of young love for sale
Now if I you’d like to try my way
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale

Like the poet’s type of love in their childish way
I know every kind of love better far than they
If you want to trail of love
I’ve been through the mill of love
Old love, new love, every love but true love

Love for sale
Advertising young love for sale
Love that’s fresh and still unspoiled
Love that’s only slightly soiled
Love for sale

Who would buy?
Who would like to sample my surprise?

Love for sale

…

Love for sale
Advertising young love for sale

Love for sale
Advertising crazy love for sale
Now if I you’d like to try my way
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale

Love for sale (Sweet Love)
Love for sale (Lots and lots of young love)
Love for sale
