Christopher Cross Night Across the World song lyrics

Words and Music by Christopher Cross and Rob Meurer

I've heard there could be desire

So strong you would brave the fire

Until now I made them liars

Now there is you

'Cause something about your touch

Is making me feel too much

And letting you go is such a hard thing to do

And when the dawn is closing in

I know I need to drown in your love again

I'd chase the night across the world

To spend one more minute with you

When morning lay just ahead

And daybreak invades our bed

I'll steal you away instead

And fly to the dark

'Cause when the dawn is closing in

I know I need to drown in your love again

I'd chase the night across the world

To spend one more minute with you

Alone with you

Hold on

Our wings will not fail us

On to Babylon

Where the light can't find us

Hold on

Hold on

Baby hold on

In the heat of this desperate hour

We will follow the moon and it's power

That fever that we must devour

Over and over again
