I was thinking out loud One life's such a short time for love When a match made in heaven arrives Eternity is never enough It's all been so simple 'til now There's no brilliance like beauty out there No knowledge as wise as the heart We all need reason to care I need to dance with life Sweep you away into the night When there is no one else around I will make every day count We need to dance with life Swim in the soul of your eyes 'til we melt into the night We need to dance with life And we leave a brilliant light behind We could lay on the ground We could look at that light in the sky Show the moon and the million stars The stars that we become when we die I need to dance with life Sweep you away into the night When there is no one else around I will make every day count We need to dance with life Swim in the soul of your eyes 'til we melt into the night We need to dance with life And we leave a brilliant light behind Its no secret how I feel This flesh and bone I love you is sealed To cover me up and hide the deal And the deal with me To dance with life Breathe the sweet fresh air And make every second your last And I'll touch you from the world I wake in Make the most of the present and the past I need to dance with life Sweep you away into the night When there is no one else around I will make every day count We need to dance with life Swim in the soul of your eyes 'til we melt into the night We need to dance with life And we leave a brilliant light behind
