Lyrics
Night Across the World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've heard there could be desire
So strong you would brave the fire
Until now I made them liars
Now there is you
'Cause something about your touch
Is making me feel too much
And letting you go is such a hard thing to do
And when the dawn is closing in
I know I need to drown in your love again
I'd chase the night across the world
To spend one more minute with you
When morning lay just ahead
And daybreak invades our bed
I'll steal you away instead
And fly to the dark
'Cause when the dawn is closing in
I know I need to drown in your love again
I'd chase the night across the world
To spend one more minute with you
Alone with you
Hold on
Our wings will not fail us
On to Babylon
Where the light can't find us
Hold on
Hold on
Baby hold on
In the heat of this desperate hour
We will follow the moon and its power
That fever that we must devour
Over and over again
