Our Affair - Carly Simon

What a perfect night

Secrets lights up the sky

Like fireflies do

There’s nothing but a silky hope

That old opiate

Between me and you

Don’t look now

We’re just about there

We’re just one little breath away

From our affair

From our affair

Don’t move too fast

Don’t run scared

We’re just one surrender away

From our affair

Don’t you feel like

You’re coming down with something

Some great fancy flu

Don’t you feel like you’re

Coming down with me

And it doesn’t get sicker than you

Don’t you feel like this is the really good part

Where it’s still up in the air

The perfect romance is never

Stated or sated, deflated or fair

Don’t admit it yet

And don’t stop saying your prayers

We’re just one little heartbeat away

From our affair

From our affair

There’s a light in my window

And a little red ladybug in my hair

Just one turn down an empty street

Away, away, away

From our affair

From our affair

There’s a white-hot desire

Of which I am pleasantly aware

Just one more «wait a minute baby»

Away, away, away, away

From our affair

From our affair

From our affair
