Well it was January, not the Fourth Of July A snow white morning and a clear blue sky We were miles from nowhere But somehow or other, love found us We were laughing and looking In each other's hearts Talking and touching, trying so hard Not to notice what was going on all around us But there were fireworks flashing Thunder clapping, big waves crashing on the shore There were church bells ringing and angels singing All gathered around heaven's door Then we kissed and I saw the light I could go opn about this all night Hey darling, if you don't wanna hear how the Waters parted then don't get me started No don't get me started, I'm warning you Unless you've got an extra week or two You know darn well how I get when you get me going No, don't get me talking about us About the day we fell in love Unless you're longing for A dose of strong emotions But there were fireworks flashing Thunder clapping, big waves crashing on the shore There were church bells ringing and angels singing All gathered around heaven's door Then we kissed and I saw the light I could go opn about this all night Hey darling, if you don't wanna hear how the Waters parted then don't get me started Then we kissed and I saw the light I could go on about this all night Hey darling, if you don't wanna hear how the Waters parted then don't get me started Don't get me started Don't get me started
