Kim Carnes (born July 20, 1945 in Los Angeles, California) is an American singer-songwriter. She is noted for her distinctive, raspy voice which she attributes to many hours spent singing in smoky bars and clubs. Carnes was a member of New Christy Minstrels from 1966 until 1970. Kenny Rogers was also a member, and during this time Carnes met and married Dave Ellingson, with whom she would write most of her songs. For a short while in the early 1970s, she and Ellingson formed the folk duo Kim and Dave, which was not successful.

Gypsy Honeymoon Lyrics
Kim Carnes
Collin Ellingson/Kim Carnes)
Outta her head
And outta her dreams
There he was just the way she's seen him
Lookin' at her a thousand times before
Said I can't believe
It's been five long years
Cause tonight they just seen to disappear
You still look the same
You haven't changed at all
She said take me away with you
We can ride on the wind
Cause I feel a gypsy honeymoon
Comin' around again
Throw the car in gear
Put the zoom on the lens
Cause we're hot as a gyspy honeymoon
Comin' around again
He said I still remember
Her sweet perfume
When it filled his head
And it rocked the room
The walked the wire of passion
So alive
It's hard to hold on
In these times
Did one of us change
Was it yours or mine
You just can't imagine
How lonely I've been
She said take me away with you
We can ride on the wind
Cause I feel a gypsy honeymoon
Comin' around again
Throw the car in gear
Put the zoom on the lens
Cause we're hot as a gyspy honeymoon
Comin' around again
We chase our hearts like open fires
Give ourselves to old desires
Surrender sweet
And here we go again
She said take me away with you
We can ride on the wind
Cause I feel a gypsy honeymoon
Comin' around again
Throw the car in gear
Put the zoom on the lens
Cause we're hot as a gyspy honeymoon
Comin' around again
