It's seventy two degrees Zero chance of rain It's been a perfect day We're all spinning on our heels So far away from real In California We watched the sunset from my car We all took it in And by the time that it was dark You and me had something, yeah! And if this is what we've got Then what we've got is gold We're shining bright and I want you I want you to know The morning's on it's way Our friends all say goodbye There's nowhere else to go I hope that you'll stay the night Ooh, you'll stay the night Ooh, yeah! We've been singing Billie Jean Mixin' vodka with caffeine We've got strangers stopping by And though you're out of tune Girl you blow my mind, you do And I'll say as I don't wanna say goodnight If there's no quiet corner To get to know each other And there's no hurry I'm a patient man as you'll discover Cause if this is what we've got Then what we've got is gold We're shining bright and I want you I want you to know The morning's on it's way Our friends all say goodbye There's nowhere else to go I hope that you'll stay the night Ooh, you'll stay the night Ooh, yeah! Just like the song on my radio set We'll share the shelter of my single bed But it's a different tune that's stuck in my head And it goes If this is what we've got Then what we've got is gold We're shining bright and I want you I want you to know The morning's on it's way Our friends all say goodbye There's nowhere else to go I hope that you'll stay the night If this is what we've got Then what we've got is gold We're shining bright and I want you I want you to know The morning's on it's way Our friends all say goodbye There's nowhere else to go I hope that you'll stay the night
