This year's love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
I've been waiting on my own too long
When you hold me like you do
It feels so right, oh no
I start to forget
How my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can't go on

Turning circles when time again
It cuts like a knife, oh no
If you love me got to know for sure
'Cause it takes something more this time
Than sweet, sweet lies, oh no
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing: Ain't this life so sweet?

This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last

So who's to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't you know this life goes on
And won't you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing: Ain't this life so sweet?

This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
This year's love had better last
