When We Make Love

A full moon hangs in an empty sky

They’re just two people in a car going by

They’re young and restless and they don’t know

They’ll take any road, they don’t care where it goes

The scene is set, everything is right

He turns to her in the fading light

And he says, I don’t understand it

But there’s no way to stop it

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’re talking wordlessly

When we make love

Time is on the wing, it just goes flying by

And it gets late and she starts to cry

And he says, we gotta go but it won’t always be this way

I feel it coming closer every day

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’ll go on endlessly

When we make love

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’ll go on endlessly

When we make love

Scratched up lunchbox, pale blue shirts

Sliding in the front seat, getting home from work

She folds the kids clothes, puts them away

And after all this time he can’t wait to see her

At the end of the day she smiles, she remembers

What he used to say

A full moon hangs in an empty sky

A screen door slams and a baby cries

It’s the end of another long day

And I just thank god some things never change

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’ll go on endlessly

When we make love

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’ll go on endlessly

When we make love

When we make love

And I feel the power you give me

We’ll go on and on and on

When we make love
