Lorelei
Styx · Babe: Collection [2011]
As gentle as a butterfly, she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in, and I can hardly wait
The way she moves, ooh-ooh-ooh, I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together, brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together, brighter than the stars forever
Oh, baby forever
Her eyes become of paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in, it's time to celebrate
The way she moves, ooh-ooh-ooh, I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together, brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together, brighter than the stars
Baby, baby forever
Lorelei let's live together (Lorelei let's live together)
Brighter than the stars forever
(Brighter than the stars forever)
Lorelei let's live together (Lorelei let's live together)
Brighter than the stars forever
(Brighter than the stars forever)
Lorelei let's live together (Lorelei let's live together)
Brighter than the stars forever
(Brighter than the stars forever)
Lorelei let's live together (Lorelei let's live together)
Brighter than the stars forever
(Brighter than the stars forever)
Lorelei let's live together (Lorelei let's live together)
Brighter than the stars forever....
