Lyrics
An hour a week is all I need
To know the way I feel about you
Once a week is all I need
To understand the meaning of you
Our time is now and now I hear you talking to me
Here and there I see you
Everywhere
Within me you are everywhere...
We will meet sometimes in cafes in another part of town
And you will pay and that's okay
I'll get it on another day or
Hour a week that makes me
strong as coffee
Cappuccino only we know
where our hearts lie but we don't know why...
Except that you are simply wonderful
You're such an inspiration to me
I have watched the bird fly
Soaring grandiosity and
wings of gold and so I
think I know the meaning
of you, do I know?
We were meant to know this hour
I am but a flower that is
Growing, ever-knowing, flowing
Showing you the meaning of me
You have watched the bird fly
Soaring grandiosity and
Wings of fire and so
I think I know the meaning and
I think you know...
