Even though the night is early, there's a fire that whispers hurry
Darlin', please turn off the lights and lock the door
Come lay down here beside me, tell me that I'm soft and pretty
And love me like you never have before
If this is our last time, make it last me for a lifetime
Don't hold back the love you feel inside, why should passion be ashamed
If this is our last time, make it last me for a lifetime
Leave me with enough of sunshine to carry me through the rain
In the morning you'll be leaving, but tonight there'll be no grieving
I'll have lots of time to cry when you're gone
Let's not waste one precious moment, take all of me, I'm still your woman
And love me up until the break of dawn
If this is our last time, make it last me for a lifetime
Leave me with enough of sunshine to carry me through the rain
