When the rooms are crowded eyes will wander
Never knowing what they'll find
I came in waiting on another
Now you're all that's on my mind

Beneath a chorus of conversation
What no one else can see
Is a gamble between two strangers
That's taken a hold of me

So, let go of your halo
Break free for a while
Tell me that you're ready
And into the night
Wrong or right
Before it slips right through our hands
Let me catch you while I can

My courage rises, I walk over
Your curled smile calms me down
Words come easy, I keep you laughing
I should stop but I don't know how

When the midnight turns into daylight, maybe we'll both move on
But who knows, maybe tomorrow lonely will be long gone
Be long gone
