The Secret Is To Know When To Stop

Do you remember the night
The lights went out
All along the promenade?
It started to rain
My coat your dress got wet
We laughed til we almost cried
Your spirit was so contagious
Our timing was really bad
You were so outrageous
How could we hold back?

CHORUS
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
…Remembering

Do you remember the night
That we ran out
Out on english bay?
We went out on the water
The tow almost pulled us away
Man right then the sparks would fly
We’d get into such a mess
Our timing really stunk back then
We didn’t give a damn
What they thought I guess

CHORUS

Maybe when the skies flew open
Right then the lies would be broken
Your eyes they did all the talking
“Keep your heart open wide”
Can you remember the trip we took?
In the malibu to the west coast
We drove through a rainbow upon rogers pass
They never thought you’d get that close

CHORUS x2
