(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Venus, if you will
Please send a little girl for me to thrill
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
A girl with all the charms of you
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, make her fair
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
And take the brightest stars up in the skies
And place them in her eyes for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Surely the things I ask
Can't be too great a task
Venus, if you do
I promise that I always will be true
I'll give her all the love I have to give
As long as we both shall live
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Surely the things I ask
Can't be too great a task
Venus, if you do
I promise that I always will be true
I'll give her all the love I have to give
As long as we both shall live
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Make my wish come true
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus

Please send a little girl for me to thrill
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
A girl with all the charms of you

A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
And take the brightest stars up in the skies

Surely the things I ask
Can't be too great a task

I promise that I always will be true
I'll give her all the love I have to give

Old school for sure. Good song. Quite original in it's time
This is such a heartfelt and touching song. I love it! To me this song is about a lonely and sweet guy looking for a lonely and sweet girl, or the right girl to love, so they both won't be lonely and unloved anymore. He wants someone to share the world with and to care for, so he calls on Venus--THE GODDESS OF LOVE. He is asking Venus to help him find this dream girl, and if Venus fufilles this dear wish of his, he will promise to always love her. He promises he will give her all the love see deserves and he will care for her forevermore. THIS IS ABOUT HOPING TO FIND TRUE LOVE!
According to Avalon, the reverb on the song was achieved by recording him singing the word "Venus" in a bathroom. He joked that the song was a hit, "...from the bottom up".
