The Hollies

Feet On The Ground

If we speak of loving
Will it come from our hearts?
Do we want this night of love to last forever?
Or do we just part?

Listen to yourself
Are you sure that's what you wanna say?
We know that things sound different in the cold light of day
Don't get dizzy and lose our heads on the merry go round
I don't wanna be taken for a ride
Keep both feet on the ground

When we wake up in the morning
Will there be anyone there?
Whoever is the first one to rise
Will be the one who cares?

So let's close our eyes and go to sleep with a thought for the day
Waiting for tomorrow, just to see if there's truth in what they say
Let's say goodnight, you know goodbye is a hard word to say
Hold me close, we've reached the end
So let's drift on away with a thought for today

I'm hoping, you're wishing
I'll stay by your side
I'm wishing, you're hoping
That a flame doesn't die

And if we speak of loving
Will it come from our hearts?
Do we want this night of love to last forever?
Or do we just part?

So let's close our eyes and go to sleep with a thought for the day
Waiting for tomorrow, just to see if there's truth in what they say
Let's say goodnight, you know goodbye is a hard word to say
Hold me close, we've reached the end
So let's drift on away

Drift on away, drift on away , drift on away
