Verse 1:
I love you
I don't wanna hear a sad ballad tonight amidst the stormy weather
I love you
We have run away for caresses in the night, coming to life
It's not like we were handed everything on a silver platter
Nothing but two stray cats shaking in the dark,
Raking through the leaves and looking for a place just a little bit better,
Flickering our eyes in the thick of the night, following the sparks
Ooo-ooo-oooh
Chorus:
I've got to tell you now my darling, as we hold each other upon
The creaking woodenboards that we rest our bodies on
If we just close our eyes together now, that will get us through somehow
That our love won't scar from any sad song they sing, or the troubles they bring
Verse 2:
I love you
There are secrets into young and frail lovers too young and frail to ever be touched
I love you
How could we ever hope to find each other the way we live today?
Dreaming of a love that wraps itself around everything
Dreaming of it only to have them clip our wings
All of the times that you ask 'Do you love me with all of your heart?'
How, if I ever took my love away, it would just tear you apart
Ooo-ooo-ooh
Chorus
End:
If we just close our eyes together now, that will get us through somehow
That our love won't scar from any sad song they sing, or the troubles they bring
Mmm-mm-mm-mmmm
I love you
I don't wanna hear a sad ballad tonight amidst the stormy weather
I love you
We have run away for caresses in the night, coming to life
It's not like we were handed everything on a silver platter
Nothing but two stray cats shaking in the dark,
Raking through the leaves and looking for a place just a little bit better,
Flickering our eyes in the thick of the night, following the sparks
Ooo-ooo-oooh
Chorus:
I've got to tell you now my darling, as we hold each other upon
The creaking woodenboards that we rest our bodies on
If we just close our eyes together now, that will get us through somehow
That our love won't scar from any sad song they sing, or the troubles they bring
