It took less than a minute
No words got in the way
The telephone clicked, ooh it was finished
And I never even saw your face
It takes less than a minute
For years to slip away
And it takes more, more than memories
To make it through the day
Everyday is a brand new test for our love to survive
In a world that can be so mean
We're gonna have to fight to save our dreams
And just to keep our love alive
It takes two hearts committed
For love to turn out right
And it takes more, more baby than memories
To make it through the night
It's gonna take you touchin' me and me holding you
Every, yes, every, everyday
There's so much good baby, so much good we could do
If we don't, if we don't let harsh words get in the way
Every minute, every hour as the years go by
I'm gonna try with all my might
But you know that it takes more, more than memories
To make it through the night
Oh, it takes more, oh more than memories
To make it through the night
It takes more, so much more baby than memories
To make our love turn out right
