(R.J. Scott & C. Stevens)
|
Before we get any closer
|
Before we let it begin
|
Before our feelings take over us
|
I wanna tell you one thing
|
I'm just an ordinary girl
|
Who needs some love in her life
|
I won't pretend to me more than I am
|
I've had some lovers before
|
But now I need something more
|
Than just a meaningless holding of hands
|
I'm just an ordinary girl
|
Who wants to reach out and find
|
Someone who honestly feels like I do
|
Love is so a fragile thing I'd sooner never begin
|
Than to find out too late, it's not true
|
|
Before we get any closer
|
Before we tell any lies
|
Before we make any promises
|
We really ought to decide
|
Is this a casual event
|
Two ships that pass in the night
|
Could we find heaven out there just one time
|
Or are we closer than close
|
With deeper feelings and most
|
Could ever know for the whole of their lives
|
|
Before we get any closer
|
Before we two become us
|
I need to know if you'll always be
|
Someone to totally trust
|
I'm just an ordinary girl
|
Who needs some love in her life
|
I won't pretend to me more than I am
|
I've had some lovers before
|
But now I need something more
|
Than just a meaningless holding of hands
|
Is this the casual event
|
Two ships that pass in the night
|
Could we find heaven out there just one time
|
Or are we closer than close
|
With deeper feelings and most
|
Couldn't ever know for the whole of their lives
