I've  gotta take a little  time
 A little time  to think things over
I  better read between  the lines
 In case I need  it when I'm older
Now  this mountain I  must climb
 Feels like the world  upon my shoulders
Through  the clouds I see  love shine
 It keeps me warm  as life grows colder
 In my life  there's been heartache  and pain
 I don't know if I can face  it again
 Can't stop now I've travelled  so far
 To change  this lonely  life
I  want to know what love is
I  want you to  show me
I  want to feel what love is
I  know you can  show me
I'm  gonna take a little  time
 A little time  to look around  me
I've  got nowhere left  to hide
 It looks like love  has finally found  me
