There's a calm surrender to the rush of day When the heat of the rolling world can be turned away An enchanted moment and it sees me through It's enough for this restless warrior just to be with you And can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer that we got this far And can you feel the love tonight? How it's laid to rest It's enough to make kings and vagabonds believe the very best There's a time for everyone, if they only learn That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn There's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours And can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer that we got this far And can you feel the love tonight? How it's laid to rest It's enough to make kings and vagabonds believe the very best It's enough to make kings and vagabonds believe the very best
