Lover Lyrics

It's raining, it's pouring
It's sleeting, it's snowing
It's dangerous outside
This pillow, these sheets
This bed, this need
Is a perfect place to hide

There's nowhere to go

There's a shadow of a dance
A whisper of a chance
And a secret that I know

Lover, sleep
Like a baby
In my arms tonight
Lover, keep
Every word
That I say
Love still might
Be a mystery
But it's ours tonight
So, Lover, won't you stay?
Stay
Stay

I've waited to say it
I'm a little afraid of it
Don't know what I'm waiting for
Just three little words
And the world still turns
But it opens up a door

Closer to you

So turn off the light
Let me tell you all night
What I wanna say to you

Lover, sleep
Like a baby
In my arms tonight
Lover, keep
Every word
That I say
Love still might
Be a mystery
But it's ours tonight
So, Lover, won't you stay?
Stay

Like a fortress
Wrapped around you
That's what I'll do
Sheltering you
Not for one night
But forever
Stay with me
Stay with me
Oh

Lover, sleep
Like a baby
In my arms tonight
Lover, keep
Every word
That I say
Love still might
Be a mystery
But it's ours tonight
So, Lover, won't you stay?
Stay
Lover, stay

Lover, keep
Every word
That I say
Love still might
Be a mystery
But it's ours tonight
So, Lover, won't you stay?
Stay
Stay
Oh, Lover, won't you stay?
Oh, Lover
Stay
