Lyrics for Cupid

Cupid, draw back your bow And let your arrow go Straight to my lover's heart for me, for me Cupid, please hear my cry And let your arrow fly Straight to my lover's heart for me Now, I don't mean to bother you But I'm in distress There's danger of me losing all of my happiness For I love a girl who doesn't know I exist And this you can fix So, Cupid, draw back your bow And let your arrow go Straight to my lover's heart for me, nobody but me Cupid, please hear my cry And let your arrow fly Straight to my lover's heart for me Now, Cupid, if your arrow make her love strong for me I promise I will love her until eternity I know between the two of us her heart we can steal Help me if you will So, Cupid, draw back your bow And let your arrow go Straight to my lover's heart for me, nobody but me Cupid, please hear my cry And let your arrow fly Straight to my lover's heart for me Now, Cupid Don't you hear me calling you? I need you Cupid, help me, I need you Cupid don't fail me 'cause I need you
