If I caught the world in a bottle
And everything was still beneath the moon
Without your love would it shine for me?
If I was smart as Aristotle
And understood the rings around the moon
What would it all matter if you loved me?
Here in your arms
The where the world is impossibly still
With a million dreams to fulfill
And a matter of moments until
The dancing ends
Here in your arms
When everything seems to be clear
Not a solit'ry thing would I fear
Except when this moment comes near
The dancing's end
If I caught the world in an hourglass
Saddel up the moon so we could ride
Until the stars grew dim, until
One day, you'll meet a stranger
And all the noise is silenced in the room
You'll feel that you're close to some mystery
In the moonlight, when everything shadows
You feel as if you've known her all your life
The world's oldest lesson in history
Here in your arms
Where the world is impossibly still
With a million dreams to fulfill
And a matter of moments until
The dancing ends
Here in your arms
When everything seems to be clear
Not a solit'ry thing do I fear
Except when this moment comes near
The dancing's end
If I caught the world in an hourglass
Saddle up the moon so we would ride
Until the stars grew dim
Until the time that time stands still
Uuuuntil
