Male
When I wake up in the middle
Of the stormiest nights
When I reach out my arms to touch you
And hold you so tight
Don’t you think that, I know that,
I’ve reached heavens gate
Just to have you, just to touch you,
Before it’s too late

Female
Your dreams are what drive you
They’re what take you away
Can’t you hear me listening
To all that you say?
‘Cos I will hide all my colours,
If it helps you to shine
If you give me one moment
Of a moment of your time.

Both
Give me one moment of a moment of your time
Give me something that I can call mine
Let me stand in your shadow
While you swim in the sun
Let me walk in your footsteps
When I know I can run
Give me your Northern star
When I’m lost in the night
And I’ll give you
All the rest of my life

Female
I so proud that all the whole world
Sees is you
But please don’t forget, baby
That we’re beautiful too
Don’t you think that, I know that
I’m happy to wait
Just to have you, just to touch you
Before it’s too late

Male
I’ll love you forever
But you’ve changed since we met
And I won’t be a memory
That you want to forget
‘Cos I will fight for your honour
Give you all that is mine
If you give me one moment
Of a moment of your time.

Both
Give me one moment of a moment of your time
Give me something that I can call mine
Let me stand in your shadow
While you swim in the sun
Let me walk in your footsteps
When I know I can run
Give me your Northern star
When I’m lost in the night
And I’ll give you
All the rest of my life

Female
Let me take your world
Let me make you strong
Let me heal the pain
And right all that’s wrong

Male
Let us find a time
When this life’s put aside
And the universe will tremble
When our Northern Stars collide

Both
Give me one moment of a moment of your time
Give me something that I can call mine
Let me stand in your shadow
While you swim in the sun
Let me walk in your footsteps
When I know I can run
Give me your Northern star
When I’m lost in the night
And I’ll give you
All the rest of my life
