LYRICS

The moment you came into view
Everything went out of focus 'cept for you
From ordinary to sublime
And all the world went in and out of time
Lost in the reverie
Taken by surprise
You had me so completely mesmerized

Only a fool would come between
A man and something sacred and serene
I'm the first one to admit
That I'm a fool and not ashamed of it

Caught by the daring look
Of longing in your eyes
You got me so completely mesmerized

It's only here for a night
It's only true
If you believe it's alright
It's alright it's alright
It's only us for the night
Me and you
And I believe it's alright
It's alright
It's alright

The morning comes with no regret
And I believe the proper etiquette
Kiss me in silence slip away
When day becomes the night becomes the day

I would have walked away
Behaving otherwise
But you had me so completely mesmerized

It's only here for the night
It's only true
If you believe it's alright
It's alright, it's alright
It's only us for the night
Me and you
And I believe it's alright
It's alright
