Slow moving train
Slow moving bus
Slow moving plane
I've got to find a way to us
And now outside the driving rain
It keeps me in when I know I must
Find a way to get through the pain
I've got to find a way to us
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
Your eyes they tell of the deepest places
And I need a man that I can trust
So drink up now for the celebration of finding a way to
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
It took so long for you to see
What you wanted us to be
It took so long for you to see
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
