| (Verse 1)
Dreaming of a place, you and I can go Where we can escape, no one will ever know Living ecstasy, with our bodies hot You'll be watching me, show me what you got I know that you want me I know that you If you will escort me Then I will take you to (paradise?) (Chorus) Just you and I, making love all night If the time is right, for a flight (paradise?) I'll make you see, this was meant to be You were made for me, especially (paradise?) (Verse 2) Sometimes I feel, your love's too strong Is this for real, I don’t wanna go wrong I want you so bad, that I can taste The love you have, don’t let It go to waste Don't keep me waiting, for very long Stop (???), let's get it on (Chorus) Just you and I, making love all night |
