Don’t stop me now!
Baby, it’s cold outside,
tears in heaven
in a foggy day,
and mine are
the emptiest arms in the world…!
I dreamed a dream
beside an open fireplace,
entered the tunnel of love.
Don’t stop me now,
lover man!
Come softly to me,
see the shape of my heart
in my words of love.
Don’t stop me now,
let it be,
this tangled up blue,
my heart on the mend.
One step closer,
lover man,
ain’t no sunshine
if we keep
love on the rocks.
Don’t stop me now…
I’ll bring you a rainbow
with all the colors of the wind!
Follow the yellow brick road,
I’ll meet you halfway!
I’ll tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree,
by the moon river,
and we’ll
imagine
a stairway to heaven!
Baby, come to me
dance with me,
cheek to cheek,
whisper in my ear
a lullaby of birdland.
Don’t stop me now…
If you go away
when will my life begin…?
Castles are made of sand…
I can see clearly now.
Raindrops keep falling in my head
and autumn leaves are
blowing in the wind…
I say a little prayer for you
and then
something stupid,
like
I love you
and
- don’t stop me now -
I fall
asleep.
