Love is a slow dance Nobody knows and is too scared to ask She'll count you in from 5 (6, 7, 8) Then you're on your own A long way from home So look alive And everybody feels the same It's a fool who tries to love another way And everybody's felt the flame When they've flown too close Oh we fall into it Drag our hearts right through it Like they'll never feel the pain It can lift our trouble Or make the whole world tumble It's an all-out leap of faith And we do it anyway Love is a fair fight If you've got chance And time on your side It's anybodies race Just don't be last Or too fast out of the gate It's a wonder anybody tries It's a fool who thinks that he can turn the tide We know it's all part of the game Thrill of the chase Oh we fall into it Drag our hearts right through it Like they'll never feel the pain It can lift our trouble Or make the whole world tumble It's an all-out leap of faith And we do it anyway Oh we fall into it Drag our hearts right through it Like they'll never feel the pain It can lift our trouble Or make the whole world tumble It's an all-out leap of faith From the day you find it Time is slowly dying In a cruel and beautiful race It can lift our trouble Make the whole world tumble It's a losing game we play And we do it anyway
