I
Sometimes late at night
By the candle light
All too subtly
You mood alter me â'‚¬¦ and I â'‚¬¦

CHORUS
I'll be drinking up the minutes as they pass
I'll be cherishing the seconds while they last
And you'll be wrapping me, up in luxury,
Until the morning comes

II
So we go upstairs
And you stroke my hair
And you're touching me
It gets too much for me â'‚¬¦ and I â'‚¬¦

CHORUS
I am drinking up the minutes as they pass
I am cherishing the seconds while they last
And you are wrapping me, up in luxury,
Until the morning comes

And oh how I could weep
When I drift to sleep
Cause it seems such a sin
Not to see your face
So I stay awake
Just to drink you in.

III
When the morning breaks
And we both awake
And we're forced to part,
That just breaks my heart â'‚¬¦ 'cause I â'‚¬¦

CHORUS
I've been drinking up the minutes as they pass
I've been cherishing the seconds while they last
And you've been wrapping me, up in luxury,
Until the morning comes
You've been wrapping me up in luxury
Until the morning comes.
