Lyrics
Kissing like a bandit stealing time
Underneath the sycamore tree
Cupid by the hour sends valentines
To my sweet lover and me
Slowly but surely
Your appetite is more than I knew
Sweetly, softly
I'm falling in love with you
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers - sing!
Make it funky now, boys
Hugging like a monkey see, monkey do
Right beside a riverboat gambler ha, ha, ha, ha
Erotic images float through my head
Say you wanna be a midnight rambler
Gently but quickly
The blood races through my veins
Quickly, loudly
I wanna hear those sugar bells ring
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers
Get up now!
On the beat now, uh!
Come on!
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of butterfly tears
Come on!
Wish me love a wishing well to kiss and tell
A wishing well of crocodile cheers
Uh!
Yeah, I feel like goin' on, I feel like goin' on
(Wish me love, a wishing well to kiss and tell)
Come on, come on!
Erotic images float through here
Your midnight rambler, baby, uh
(Wish me love, a wishing well to kiss and tell)
Yeah hoo! Dig it! Follow you anywhere
I don't know, I don't care
(Wish me love, a wishing well to kiss and tell)
But all I know is that I gotta be a midnight rambler, baby, uh!

Terence Trent d'Arby changed his name to Sananda Maitreya. He was trained as a BOXER in Orlando and in 1980 won the Florida Golden Gloves lightweight championship. He modelled himself on Muhammad Ali. Terence received an offer to attend boxing school in the United States Army, but went to college instead.

That slide in to the screen!🤣 🙌🏽. His voice, those impeccable background vocals, his Maxine Shaw: Attorney at Law braids, his dance moves and the stiff dance moves of the background dancers is just the *chefs kiss*.

Hell Yeah 💯 to An amazing song. First heard it when I was 16... 50 now . And still love it ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ebonpaladin]

I first heard this song when he was still referring to himself as Terence Trent D'arby, which I found out later was a stage name. One of the great hits of the 80s, from the unique vocals, the energy and memorable lyrics - no wonder this song has such staying power! Edited to add: the apostrophe was the only thing added. His actual name was TTD.

[@user-gs1by5vf9h]

This guy proved that he can sing and change the tones of his voice without being off the pitch. No need to computers nor autotune. Try to find a singer like this today.

[@savanahdahlsten3149]

True he has a raw natural talent that's surpassed by none! He definitely should have been bigger!

[@kirnpu]

Autotune - the worst thing to ever happen to music.

[@skygazer6898]

Matthew Medina No he is not underrated, it is just that he preferred to be out of the spotlight.

[@Jevezy]

He is not underrated, he is just not talented enough to nothing but a one hit wonder.

[@nixworld767]

@@Jevezy Hit-making has very little to do with talent. Ever heard of Right Said Fred or Kajagoogoo?

[@Jevezy]

@@nixworld767 LMAO! These are your examples of hitmakers? More mediocre talent?

[@nixworld767]

@@Jevezy You inferred that he's not talented enough to be anything but a one-hit wonder. My point is that his talent, which speaks for itself, far exceeds the one-hit wonders i mentioned. The point is precisely that mediocre artists can be hitmakers while far superior talent can go unrecognized.

[@davidreynolds4684]

Still impressed after all those years. What a voice. His stage presence is as good as it gets. One of the greatest combos ever done is when Terence played with INXS. The best of both worlds. Michael was so impressed he sat down for a while and just soaked it in. But the two singing together was incredible. Id kill to see terence get with jimmy barnes for a tour. That would be powerful.

[@smurfylee]

How did I not know about them two singing together 😧 I have to see this, is it around on the inter web at all?

[@davidreynolds4684]

@@smurfylee yes. Ill see if i can find it in my library. Btw i havnt checked my phone in a while so you may have allready solved this issue. If so i apologize for wasting your time. If you have seen it youll understand what i was talking about. I think its really cool to see someone with unlimited talent sit in awe at smeone elses unlimited talent. To basically floor Michael during a show is impressive. Their energy is similar to the shows they did with jimmy barnes. That man can make the dead get up and dance. One of my go to songs to energize is Good Times. Those boys were in the zone when they recorded that one.
