Sweet disposition Never too soon Oh, reckless abandon Like no one's watching you A moment a love A dream aloud A kiss a cry Our rights Our wrongs A moment, a love A dream aloud A moment, a love A dream, aloud So stay there 'Cause I'll be coming over And while our blood's still young It's so young, it runs And won't stop 'til it's over Won't stop to surrender Songs of desperation I played them for you A moment, a love A dream aloud A kiss, a cry Our rights Our wrongs A moment, a love A dream aloud A moment, a love A dream aloud Stay there 'Cause I'll be coming over And while our blood's still young It's so young, it runs And won't stop 'til it's over Won't stop to surrender And won't stop 'til it's over Won't stop 'til it's over Won't stop 'til it's over Won't stop to surrender
