Close the door, light the light We're stayin' home tonight Far away from the bustle and the bright city lights Let them all fade away, just leave us alone And we'll live in a world of our own We'll build a world of our own that no one else can share All our sorrows we'll leave far behind us there And I know you will find there'll be peace of mind When we live in a world of our own Oh, my love, oh my love, I've cried for you so much Lonely nights without sleeping while I longed for your touch Now your lips can't evade the heartache I've known Come with me to a world of our own We'll build a world of our own that no one else can share All our sorrows we'll leave far behind us there And I know you will find there'll be peace of mind When we live in a world of our own We'll build a world of our own that no one else can share All our sorrows we'll leave far behind us there And I know you will find there'll be peace of mind When we live in a world of our own And I know you will find there'll be peace of mind When we live in a world of our own
