Terence Trent D'Arby - We Don't Have That Much Time Together

Alone in a car driving me far to get to you today

The wind at my wings whispering things for me to say

The moon is in view when I get to you

These tender moments are a precious few

'Cause we don't have that much time together

'Cause we don't have that much time together



The smell of your skin and I begin

To kneel and to pray to you

Your sensual caress makes me confess my love for you

As we're making love we can't get enough


The clock is never kind when we unwind

'Cause we don't have that much time together

'Cause we don't have that much time together



Heaven is only halt the distance

Between your soul and mine

Blood is thicker than water yes

But love is thicker than blood

You bring me provisions of perfect peace

Your sugar stained tongue is sweet

So Heaven is only half the distance

Between your soul and mine



Because of your sighs the hours fly


As though they're filled with air

Yet here we are ascending the stars as lovers dare

The rising sun is ending our fun

We'll leave to future promise what's left undone

'Cause we don't have that much time together

'Cause we don't have that much time together



You bring me provisions of perfect peace

Your sugar stained tongue is sweet

So Heaven is only half the distance

Between your soul and mine



The eye of the storm where it is warm peaceful and serene

Your spiral of tears as morning papers

The bitter sweet aroma of ecstasy

'Cause we don't have that much time together

'Cause we don't have that much time together
