Laughing's short but loving lasts
I can't mix the future with the past
Can I stay close to you?

I wanna stay close to you

You've got yours and I've got mine

And what we have is so hard to define
Just take a look at your lifeline
Ooh, you've got a lot to shine


And say baby
I wanna know you for a long, long time

Ooh, and baby
I wanna know you for a long, long time


Oh, darling, lady friend
We'll see each other when it's time to show
Just for a minute or for a year

But then again, don't you and I know

The time between our time together

It doesn't exist, it grows old forever
Just take a look at your lifeline
Oh baby, you've got a lot to shine


All I know is that baby
I wanna know you for a long, long time

Ooh, and baby
Wanna know you for a long, long time
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know baby


I wanna know baby, I wanna know baby
Oh, you got a lot to live girl

So I wanna know you
(Know ya for a long, long time)
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know, baby


So much to live for girl, so much to live for girl
Oh, so I wanna know you, baby

Wanna know you for a long, long time
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know, baby


I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know ya, girl
I wanna know ya, girl, ooh baby, baby, baby, baby
Wanna know you for a long, long time

Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know baby
Wanna know you girl, wanna know you girl
