Listen here, this will only be
A small portion of your night time
That you'll sacrifice for me
I asked and you were born
And like the wind you snuck up on me
Got me begging for your storm
Fifty-two fifty more days until I come back from war
I'm gonna lock you up and love you down
I can't take this anymore
Nights are old, but I am young
Across the sea writing letters home
Answer me, let me hear your voice
I can't take this anymore
I don't know where you go
There's so much more, so much more, so much more
you need to know
Take it slow now
Smooth running
Live the day cool
Smooth running
Show me strength
True loving
Trust me girl
True loving
Listen here, this might only be
A small portion of your lifetime
To give it right back to me
I asked and you were born
Like the snow you fall upon me
Got me begging for some more
Fifty-two fifty more
Days until I might come back from war
I'm gonna love you up
And love you down
I'd cross the world just to
Hear your sound
And I don't know where you've gone
There's so much more, so much more, so much more
You need to know
Live the day cool
Smooth running
Live your life cool
Smooth running
Show me strength
True loving
Trust me girl
True loving
Oh
Reign on love
Reign on love
Reign on love
Rain!
