The Longest Night

Two lonely hearts in search of love meet finally face to face
The happiness and joy I'd lost, I found in your embrace
A taste of heaven is in your kiss, I lie you down and then
I memorize what I'm feeling now, don't want this night to end

It was the longest night of my life
We made love until the morning light
It was the longest night of my life
Why did we ever have to say goodnight
I never wanna say goodnight

Yeah, I wish this night could go on forever
And if I can do anything to make that happen
I promise you, I'll do it

Oh, I'm lying awake and I'm dreaming about the vows I'll make to you
Tomorrow our father, our family, our friends will hear us say, "I do"
This moment in time dances all through my mind our sacred wedding day
I never knew eleven hours could seem a million miles away

It was the longest night of my life
Praying tomorrow you'd be my wife
It was the longest night of my life
Praying we'd never have to say goodbye
I never wanna say goodbye

These are the first days of the rest of my life
Lets do our best to raise a family to love each other
To have and hold in sickness and health till death do us part
Baby, we gotta work on this, we don't ever have to say goodbye
We'll just love each other

I never will forget the look you had upon your face
No tears to cry, no long goodbyes, you want to leave this place
So now my nights are sleepless, no apologies to say
Trying to be strong, trying to hold on and face another day

After the longest night of my life
Why did you ever say goodbye
I was in love with you
Did what you want me to do, oh
It was the longest night of my life
And the tears fall from my eyes, yeah
