Standing by a tree
Hoping to get lost and to see
Forgetting somehow
It’s time to redeem yourself for the one chance you have
Standing by a tree
Waiting for the hurricane to begin
But you know that’s alright
To be doubting the enemy’s eyes
For you know it’s not the time to let it go
Yeah, never let me go
Don’t you realize
When it’s gone
It’s gone for good you know
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
I’m in the mood for dreams beyond control
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
Take me down to your sweet oblivion
Floating like a leaf
Torn by desires of disbelief.
Every brain’s on the line.
In the great vanity of human mind
Cause you know it’s not the time to let it go
Please never let me go
Don’t you realize
When it’s gone
It’s gone for good you know
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
I’m in the mood for dreams beyond control
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
Take me down to your sweet oblivion
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
I wanna touch the silk of your skin
I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood for you
Take me down to your sweet oblivion
Standing by a tree
Hoping to get lost and to see
