It's a hundred miles to get there
And there is no easy way
But we've got everything and
The cooking's on the way
Well we're in for rainy weather, but
We got everything we need
When the clock strikes twelve
We'll be kicking up our feet
Chorus:
Well it's not long
For you and I to get there
It's the same song
For you and I together
It's a right wrong
For you and I to make it to the ball
There ain't no sense in sitting down
When the fire isn't far
Just one more mile and
We're underneath our star
You kiss me once, I'll kiss you twice
With our patience giving in
Such a lovely game that we play
When we are kids
(Chorus)
Oh baby, please see me
Oh baby, don't
Oh baby, please see me
Oh baby, don't
As we slip into the center
Of the midnight masquerade
Well the world goes round and
The colors start to fade
As I rub my eyes I wake to find
I've been sleeping in the hall
And stuck on my face
Are the kisses from the ball
(Chorus)
