Just Once Around The Clock

(album: Hidden Treasures - 1986)

Nothing to regret tomorrow, nothing to regret
You'll find me making no demand or claim upon you
Kiss me and forget. Kiss me and forget
Kiss me while you may. Tomorrow is another day
So, while you're glowing with the sweet, warm flame upon you
Let it burn away. Let its light be short and gay

Just once around the clock and then goodbye, dear
Love likes to fly by night so let it fly, dear
Love likes to fly by night so let it fly, dear
And when it's over bid me goodbye, dear

Just once around the clock as happy strangers
Who seek the joys of life without its dangers
Just once around the clock, let beauty lead you
And when it's over, darling, God speed you
Just as we met with the coming of the moonlight
We'll part with the rising of the sun
