[Verse 1]

Say no more

If you want to kiss goodnight

That's all right by me

Close your door

Make sure the latch is tight

Fall gently to sleep

[Pre-Chorus]

We don't have to rush ahead

Putting questions in your head

And an ache in your heart

[Chorus]

Let's take a lifetime

All that we desire

Build it day by day into forever

Let's take a lifetime

All that you require

Here and now and ever

[Verse 2]

In these times

Love is not some harmless game

It's played strictly for keeps

No, and it's no crime

Wanting me to feel the same

With water so deep

[Pre-Chorus]

Come tomorrow once again

We'll be together until then

We have dreaming to do

[Chorus]

Let's take a lifetime

All that we desire

Build it day by day into forever

Let's take a lifetime

All that you require

Here and now and lasting evermore

[Bridge]

So hard to leave you standing there in the night

You look so lovely

If we must wait

No use tempting fate

[Chorus]

Let's take a lifetime

All that we desire

Build it day by day into forever

Let's take a lifetime (Let's take our time)

All that you require (All that you require)

Let's not hurry through the night

When our love could last a lifetime

All that we desire (All that we desire)

Build it day by day into forever (Into forever)

Let's take a lifetime (A lifetime)

All that you require

Let's not hurry through the night

When our love could last a lifetime (Let's take)

All that we desire
