Tonight's the night we'll make history, honey, you and I
|
And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time
|
And stay with you here tonight
|
I know you feel these are the worst of times
|
I do believe it's true
|
When people lock their doors and hide inside
|
Rumor has it it's the end of Paradise
|
But I know, if the world just passed us by
|
Baby I know, you wouldn't have to cry
|
|
The best of times are when I'm alone with you
|
Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two
|
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime
|
We'll take the best, forget the rest
|
And someday we'll find these are the best of times
|
These are the best of times
|
|
The headlines read 'these are the worst of times'
|
I do believe it's true
|
I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide
|
I wish the summer winds could bring back Paradise
|
But I know, if the world turned upside down
|
Baby, I know you'd always be around
|
|
The best of times are when I'm alone with you
|
Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two
|
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime
|
We'll take the best, forget the rest
|
And someday we'll find these are the best of times
|
These are the best of times
|
|
And so my friends we'll say goodnight
|
For time has claimed it's prize
|
But tonight will always last
|
As long as we keep alive memories of Paradise...
