Don't move, baby don't move
Aw look at you, I just want to take this in
The moonlight dancin' off your skin
Our time, let's take our time
I just want to look in your eyes
And catch my breath
'Cause I got a feelin'

This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thought of forever
What if this was that moment
That chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Inside, baby, inside
Can you feel the butterflies
Floatin' all around
'Cause I can sure feel 'em now
Tonight, maybe tonight
Is the start of a beautiful ride
That'll never end
And baby I got a feelin'

This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thought of forever
What if this was that moment
That chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Right here, right now
Holdin' you in my arms
Ah-ah-ah-ah

This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, we want to cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thoughts of forever
What if this was that moment
A chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Ah yeah
History in the makin'
Ah ah
This is a chance worth takin
Ah ah
