I Didn't Mean To Stay All Night

(album: Love Among The Cannibals - 1989)

My love is drifting in a sweet dream
And my heart is beating like a drum
And my words don't make a sound
And I'm dancing but my feet ain't on the ground

I am flying, forever within your arms
Oh I'm flying, forever within your heart, I am flying
I didn't mean to stay all night, oh no, but baby you hold so tight
I didn't mean to turn you loose, oh no, but baby you won't refuse
I didn't mean to turn you on, oh no, it's heaven it can't be wrong
I didn't mean to stay all night

My thoughts are running in a race
And my mind is slipping into space
Cause your world is all around
So I'm dancing but my feet ain't on the ground

I am flying, forever within your arms
Oh I'm flying, forever within your heart, I am flying
I didn't mean to stay all night, oh no, but baby you hold so tight
I didn't mean to turn you loose, oh no, but baby you won't refuse
I didn't mean to turn you on, oh no, it's heaven it can't be wrong

I am flying, forever within your arms
Oh I'm flying, forever within your heart

I didn't mean I didn't mean to make you stay, oh but baby you got your way
I didn't mean I didn't mean to fool around, but baby you held me down

I didn't mean to stay all night
I didn't mean I didn't mean to make you stay oh no
I didn't mean to let you get your way
I didn't mean I didn't mean to fool around oh no
I didn't mean to let you hold me down
I didn't mean to turn you on baby oh no
To make you fall in love, I didn't mean
I didn't mean to turn you loose honey oh no
But you just can't refuse, and I didn't mean
I didn't mean to stay all night, oh no, but you won't let go
I didn't mean I didn't mean to make you stay oh no
I didn't mean to let you get your way
I didn't mean I didn't mean to fool around oh no...
