Now the sun is shifting through your life

The hands of time are twisting to your days

A captured moment in your kiss, like winter snow, it's gone, melted away



There's a chapel on the edge of town

Baby take my hand before they tear it down

'Cos now we find nothing's what it seems

Let me hold you close through these drivin' dreams



'Cos the world is turning much too fast

And time won't wait, gotta make love last

'Cos the fields are burning, and there's no returning

Till the future finds the past, we gotta make love last, make love last



Like a rose exploding in the sun, a precious time to live before it's gone

Tears fall on the ocean from different skies

Inside your kiss I wake and find the dawn



In temporary ways we give, but eternally, our hearts will live

For now we find nothing's what it seems

You better run with me through these drivin' dreams



'Cos the highway's fading much too fast

And time won't wait, we gotta make love last

'Cos the fields are burning, and the season's turning

Till the future finds the past, this time, we gotta make love last



(Instrumental break)



'Cos the world is turning much too fast

And time won't wait, we gotta make love last

'Cos the fields are burning, and the season's turning

Till the future finds the past, this time, we're gonna make love last

We gotta make love last



'Cos the highway's fading, and the world is turning much too fast

We gotta make love last, make love last
