It was the night Before the harvest moon I barely caught my breath Looking at you
Oh, love is the sweetest pain inside Oh, and the answer to it all is right there in your eyes
I think I could die tonight And know that I don't have to live again And make love for hours 'til our bodies join And your skin is my skin If I could take the sun and take the moon And make tomorrow wait If only I, if only I knew the way
If I could speak Release this quiet storm And let you see my heart Open and warm
Oh, maybe then you could ease the pain Oh, maybe this longing in my soul will make you wanna stay
I think I could die tonight And know that I don't have to live again And make love for hours 'til our bodies join And your skin is my skin If I could take the sun and take the moon And make tomorrow wait If only I knew the way
If I could take The stars and write your name If I could stop this fire And make it rain
Oh, I would be free of loving you Oh, if only you were mine If only you knew
