Lyrics

How, how can it be that a love Carved out of caring, fashioned by fate Could suffer so hard From the games played much too often? But making mistakes is a part Of life's imperfections Born of the years Is it so wrong to be human after all? Oh, drawn into the stream Of undefined illusion Those diamond dreams They can't disguise the truth That there is something about you Baby, so right I wouldn't be without you Baby, tonight If ever our love was concealed No one can say that we didn't feel A million things And a perfect dream of life Gone, fragile, but free We remain tender together If not so in love, it's not so wrong We're only human after all Oh, these changing years They add to your confusion Oh, you need to hear The time that told the truth Because there's something about you, baby, so right (and now the way you are tonight) I couldn't live without you, baby, tonight (I couldn't live without you) And now there's something about you, yeah And I couldn't live without you, tonight
