Lyrics

Going Places

Come to my side, child
Don't live me alone
Stay with me, darling
I can't face this on my own

I need you to be with me
I need you in life
I want to forever
Be yours and you'll be mine

Oh child
'Cause we're going places
We've never thought we could
Through all kinds of changes
But still our hearts beat closer
More and more, more and more

More than just a heartbeat
From the city floor
More than just the bright lights
That led me to your distant shore

I'm keepin' my head up
And out of the sand
Way 'cross the rooftops
I'm gonna plan our escape

Oh child
'Cause we're going places
We've never dreamt we could
Through all kinds of changes
But still our hearts beat closer
More and more, more and more

We're going place
We've never dreamt we could
Through all kinds of changes
But still our hearts beat closer
More and more
