Lyrics
Forget all those things that they tell you
They just don't apply
What happens to you when I hold you
Can't be denied
Why should we wait any longer
This is our chance and we might
Make it tonight
So close to the edge, now we're falling
Heaven knows why
It sounds like the angels are calling
We've got to reply
And if for no other reason
We've got the wings for the flight
Let's make it tonight
Now that the time is so right
Let's make it tonight
So easy, so quickly, so sweetly
That's how we began
A love like perpetual motion
Again and again
Forgive me now for repeating but
This is our chance and we might
Make it tonight
Now that the time is so right
Let's make it tonight
