Now the sand is shifting through your life
The hands of time are twisting through your days
A captured moment in your kiss
Like winter snow is gone, melted away
There's a chapel on the edge of town
Baby take my hand before they tear it down, yeah
Cos now we find nothing's what it seems
Let me hold you close through these driving dreams
Cos the world is turning much too fast
And time won't wait, gotta make love last
Cos the fields are burning and there's no returning
Til the future finds the past
We gotta make love last, make love last, yeah
Like a rose exploding in the sun
A precious time to live before it's gone
Tears fall on the ocean from different skies
Inside your kiss I wake and find the dawn
In temporary ways we give
But eternally our hearts will live
For now we find nothing's what it seems
You better run with me through these driving dreams
Cos the highway's fading much too fast
And time won't wait, we gotta make love last
Cos the fields are burning and the season's turning
Til the future finds the past
This time we gotta make love last
Cos the world is turning much too fast
And time won't wait, we gotta make love last
Cos the fields are burning and the season's turning
Til the future finds the past
This time we're gonna make love last
We gotta make love last
Cos the highway's fading
And the world is turning
Much too fast
We gotta make love last
Make love last
