One night is all it does take (D)
One night is all it does take
To start fires and earthquakes
Between two hearts so in love
That take to the sky like doves
One night is all it does take
To across the heart a rake
Of coals burning deep within
The chambers of love and sin
One night is all it does take
To swindle and to now make
An illusion full of lust
That will make you float like dust
One night is all it does take
For your heart to see the fake
Mask that people wear all day
In sadness dark, deep, and grey.
One night is all it does take
To tell it’s a piece of cake
That doesn’t require fret
Because, really, we’ve just met.
