Lyrics
VERSE
Overnight, love won't come to you that way
It takes more than just a day to make it right
And that won't happen overnight
In your eyes is every dream I ever knew
We can make them all come true, you and I
But it won't happen overnight
CHORUS
Love has a funny way of keeping its own time
And time we cannot change
When day becomes the night, and night becomes the day
I want you to stay
SOLO
VERSE
Overnight, when morning brings the sun
If everything we've done seems so right
Love could happen overnight
Holding you, I feel your heartbeat next to mine
Love can take a long, long time, but it just might...
Happen overnight
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Overnight, overnight, overnight...
