love is on the way - saigon kick

love is on the way - saigon kick

lonely sidewalks, silent night
bring the evening, deep inside
hold me darlin, touch me now
let the feeling, free tonight

time of season, wipes the tears
no rhyme or reason, no more fears
all the dreaming, far behind
you are here now, everything's alright

and in the morning i'll be gone away
all the things i left behind
if you need me i'll come night or day
lets stop the hands of time
