Just one year of love Is better than a lifetime alone One sentimental moment in your arms Is like a shooting star right through my heart It's always a rainy day without you I'm a prisoner of love inside you I'm falling apart all around you, yeah My heart cries out to your heart I'm lonely but you can save me My hand reaches up for to your hand I'm cold but you light the fire in me My lips search for your lips I'm hungry for your touch There's so much left unspoken And all I can do is surrender To the moment just surrender And no one ever told me that love would hurt so much (Ooh yes it hurts) And pain is so close to pleasure And all I can do is surrender to your love (ooh ooh ooh) (Just surrender to your love) Just one year of love Is better than a lifetime alone One sentimental moment in your arms Is like a shooting star right through my heart It's always a rainy day without you I'm a prisoner of love inside you I'm falling apart all around you And all I can do is surrender
