(Clarke Sylvester Hicks)

If we speak of lovin'

Will it come from our hearts

Do we want this night of love to last forever

Or do we just part



Listen to yourself

Are you sure that's what you wanna say

We know that things sound different

In the cold light of day

Don't get dizzy and lose our heads

On the merry go round

I don't wanna be taken for a ride

Keep both feet on the ground



When we wake up in the morning

Will there be anyone there

Whoever is the first one to rise

Will be the one who cares



So, let's close our eyes and go to sleep

With a thought for the day

Waiting for tomorrow

Just to see if there's truth in what they say

Let's say goodnight

You know goodbye is a hard word to say

Hold me close

We've reached the end

So let's drift on away

With a thought for today



Break



I'm hopin', you're wishin'

I'll stay by your side

I'm wishin', you're hopin'

That a flame doesn't die





And if we speak of lovin'

Will it come from our hearts

Do we want this night of love to last forever

Or do we just part



So, let's close our eyes and go to sleep

With a thought for today

Waiting for tomorrow

Just to see if there's truth in what they say

Let's say goodnight

You know goodbye is a hard word to say

Hold me close

We've reached the end

So let's drift on away

Drift on away

Drift on away

Drift on away
