You know it's funny, funny how time flies As I watch days turn into years You never know if it will last forever You can only try to keep it new, whoa Late around midnight When you're holding me near It feels so good to me Feel like crying those tears It's still a thrill, when you hold me It's still a thrill, when you're loving me Thrill, it's still a thrill Your passion, your passion moves me Like the ocean it runs so deep I'm walking in this mile for you Just to get the things you do It feels like the first time When we met Your charms still overwhelms me Tell me, how can it be? When we make love It's still a thrill, when you hold me It's still a thrill, when you're loving me Thrill, it's still a thrill, thrill Thrill, it's still a thrill, thrill I've gone home now Where are my keys?
