The Torch

One precious moment, one measure of proof

Is all I need to make me run to you

A flash of light beyond a guide sign blue

In those eyes no disguise could hide the truth

You are almost human when you show how you feel

But things you say can cloak what love reveals

I need the woman that your words conceal

For tonight only flesh and blood is real

Lady, turn your light on

Make me know that you are there

I can' t wait any more, we could fly if you dare

So turn your light on, for I am waiting for you

Let the woman inside you pull me through

To carry the torch

Make love ‘til daybreak and I can' t keep a way

As no two nights are ever quite the same

For when I think that all my strength is drained

Then I crawl on my knees to you again

As daylight brakes across the morning sky

She saved a dance to greet the dawning light

I realize that as I watch her flow

There are things only I will ever know

One precious moment, one measure of proof

Is all I need to make me run to you

A flash of light beyond a guide sign blue

In those eyes no disguise could hide the truth

You are almost human when you show how you feel

But things you say can cloak what love reveals

I need the woman that your words conceal

For tonight only flesh and blood is real

Lady, turn your light on

Make me know that you are there

I can' t wait any more, we could fly if you dare

So turn your light on, for I am waiting for you

Let the woman inside you pull me through

To carry the torch

Make love ‘til daybreak and I can' t keep a way

As no two nights are ever quite the same

For when I think that all my strength is drained

Then I crawl on my knees to you again

As daylight brakes across the morning sky

She saved a dance to greet the dawning light

I realize that as I watch her flow

There are things only I will ever know
