Lyrics:

Words and Music by Christopher Cross and Rob Meurer

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
