Perfect Strangers

Perfect strangers

Both of us know the dangers

Sharing secrets

In each others arms

Time is passing (I am all but frozen)

One chance is all we're asking (Put your arms around me)

Somehow, somewhere (Don't know why you've chosen)

Love will find a way (Someone like me)

Gently, slowly, let me, fall in love with you

Far across the ocean in the darkest night

I was sailing on the ship of fools

But looking in your eyes I see the harbor lights

Now I just want to stay with you

So take my hand, follow me

Understand what I need

And love me as if you've always loved me

Til the morning light

And it's alright

You're the perfect stranger tonight

My love, for you, fills my heart

The more you, hold me, gently

In your loving arms

Openhearted (I am just a shadow)

I love the love we've started (Shine your light upon me)

Sharing, dreaming (You're the only answer)

In this place and time (I've been waiting for)

Once in a lifetime, you find love, let it be tonight

Far across the ocean in the darkest night

I was sailing on the ship of fools

But looking in your eyes I see the harbor lights

Now I just want to stay with you

So take my hand, follow me

Understand what I need

And love me as if you've always loved me

Til the morning light

And it's alright

You're the perfect stranger tonight
