When I was young I could tell between the moon and the stars
And I would hold my breath underwater for a minute and a half
You came along, to be my baby
And then you came along, to be my darlin
Love, when did I learn to be perfectly fine, with the
Wind in my hair and the cold of my feet
Was gone then you came along to be my baby
Love, then you came along, to be my darling
It was love before I even held your hands
It was love and I could tell that I was weak
In the knees and so we danced our time away
Into the night
I thought I was, born in a jungle but I was born
In a palace of green and I couldn't stay
Another night without holding my knees between yours
Another night without feeling your lips on mine
Baby if they, call me a failure you could be my prize
If my life is a joke, you could be my smile
Another home, another land, another city
If it means that i could be a better man in your eyes
It was love before I even held your hands
It was love and I could tell that I was weak
In the knees and so we danced our time away
Into the night
It was love, before i even closed my eyes
It was love and I could tell that you were holding your breath
And so we sang our hearts, out into the night
