    LYRICS:
    Come closer, come closer and listen
    The beat of my heart keeps on missing
    I notice it most when we're kissing
    Come closer and love me tonight
    That's right
    Come closer and cuddle me tight
    My heart goes
    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang
    When you are near
    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang
    Loud in my ear
    Pounding away, pounding away
    Won't you be mine?
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang all the time
    It's such a lovely feeling
    When I'm in your arms
    Don't go away
    I wanna stay my whole life through
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang
    Close to you
    Your smile is so warm and inviting
    The thought of your kiss is exciting
    So hold me and don't keep me waiting
    Come closer and love me tonight
    That's right
    Come closer and cuddle me tight
    My heart goes
    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang
    When you are near
    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang
    Loud in my ear
    Pounding away, pounding away
    Won't you be mine?
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang all the time
    It's such a lovely feeling
    When I'm in your arms
    Now you are near
    I wanna hear your heartbeat too
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang
    I love you
    It's such a lovely feeling
    When I'm in your arms
    Now you are near
    I wanna hear your heartbeat too
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang
    Boom bang-a-bang-bang
    I love you

    I am now 69 years old. I was 14 (almost 15) years old back then, and living in Spain in 1969 . I remember the hype about this particular Eurovision, and also remember watching the show live. Instantly, I loved Lulu and this song. I did not know a single word that she was saying; and I was mesmerized by that. I bought the 45 RPM of Lulu singing this song, and brought it with me to the US when we relocated to New York. I knew the French words to the French and Spanish songs, though. I left Madrid on December 23, 1969 and landed in New York, and to this day, I have never gone back. I was main-streamed at school at the beginning of 1970. By December of 1970, I knew the language, and the next time I played the song, I knew all the words...I still have that record that I bought in Madrid in 1969 as a keepsake. 😃

So quite entitled to be in Eurovision for the UK! Also, Eurovision is for countries whose broadcasters have joined the European Broadcasting Union - it includes Israel and Australia! The ESC started in 1956 (the EBU 1950).
