Tonight I celebrate my love for you,

It seems the natural thing to do!

Tonight, no ones going to find us,

Well leave the world behind us,

When I make love to you, tonight!



Tonight I celebrate my love for you,

And hope that you can feel that way too!

Tonight our spirits will be climbin

To a sky lit up with diamonds!

When I make love to you, tonight!



Tonight I celebrate my love for you,

And the midnight sun is gonna come shining through,

Tonight, therell be no distance between us,

What I want most of you,

Is to get close to you,

Tonight!



Tonight I celebrate my love for you,

And soon this old world will seem brand new!

Tonight, we will both discover,

How friends turn into lovers,

When I make love to you, tonight!
