This is the right time to believe in love

Ooh yeah yeah yeah
Ooh oh oh

Everyone knows, if you don't demand it shows
That you understand the light shining inside us
It's more than tonight, it's forever more, it's right
When there's someone there through the night to hold you close

You know it's all that you'll ever need
'Cause you're seeing love, and seeing it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

[Chorus]
This is the right time, this is the right time
I can see it in your eye
This is the right time to believe in love

Everyone knows it's a special thing, it's a love
That will never, ever be wrong, 'cause this love is strong

You know it's all that you'll ever need
'Cause you're seeing love, and seeing it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

[Chorus: x2]

So when you know that there's someone there you want
And you want him so tonight, more than you've ever done anyone

You know it's all that you'll ever need
'Cause you're seeing love, and seeing it clearly
There's no doubt about it, you just have to shout out

[Chorus: x2]

Well do you believe baby
'Cause I believe baby
Do you believe baby

This is the right time, this is the right time
This is the right time to believe in love
This is the right time, this is the right time
This is the right time to believe in love
