Lyric

Sweetheart, the night is growing old

Sweetheart, my love is still untold

A kiss that is never tasted

Forever and ever is wasted

For all we know we may never meet again

Before you go, make this moment sweet again

We won't say good night until the last minute

I'll hold out my hand and my heart will be in it

For all we know this may only be a dream

We come and go like a ripple on a stream

So love me tonight, tomorrow's made for some

Tomorrow may never come, for all we know

- It's already the end -
