Our Affair Lyrics - Carly Simon

OUR AFFAIR 

WRITER CARLY SIMON 

What a perfect night 

Secrets lights up the sky 

Like fireflies do 

There's nothing but a silky hope 

That old opiate 

Between me and you 

Don't look now 

We're just about there 

We're just one little breath away 

From our affair 

From our affair 

Don't move too fast 

Don't run scared 

We're just one surrender away 

From our affair 

Don't you feel like 

You're coming down with something 

Some great fancy flu 

Don't you feel like you're 

Coming down with me 

And it doesn't get sicker than you 

Don't you feel like this is the really good part 

Where it's still up in the air 

The perfect romance is never 

Stated or sated, deflated or fair 

Don't admit it yet 

And don't stop saying your prayers 

We're just one little heartbeat away 

From our affair 

From our affair

There's a light in my window 

And a little red ladybug in my hair 

Just one turn down an empty street 

Away, away, away 

From our affair 

From our affair 

There's a white-hot desire 

Of which I am pleasantly aware 

Just one more "wait a minute baby" 

Away, away, away, away 

From our affair 

From our affair 

From our affair
