The Thought Of Loving You - Manhattan Transfer

The thought of loving you

The way I’m longing to A thousand hopeful dreams I have

Are finally coming true

I used to put you on a pedestal

Where you became untouchable

But now we touch and now so much is possible

Just being near to you (So near to you)

Would be enough for me (For me)

The many years without your love have been so tough on me But now a change has taken place in me

I found someone whose faith in me Has given me the strength I need so desperately

Oh in my darkness you turn on the light

My illusions vanish overnight

The thought of loving you is now reality

The thousand dreams I have I’ll know in the end how it could be For as we melt in love so beautiful

I never felt so wonderful

The thought of loving you the way I’m loving you right now

(Background voices)

In the darkness you turn on the light

My illusions vanish overnight

In the darkness…

(repeat to fade)
