Lyrics
LOVE OASIS
Music & Lyrics by Roger Bolt
Co-arranged with JoAnna Noble
When you're alone on a moon lit night,
And a voice from within says this isn't right.
Call out to me and I'll be there.
I'll come to you on the soft night air.
(Chorus)
I know a place, a love oasis,
Where we can show our hidden faces,
Love is born in secret places,
Where two are one, in our love oasis.
I'm alone like you because I'm afraid
But love is a gift you can't masquerade
Time stands still when we're apart
Release me from this lonely heart.
Chorus; With youĂ?Â?
(Bridge)
This feeling is real and always rare,
It's the nature of love that we must share
Our chance together we must take,
Let go of fear for love to awake.
A lovers embrace is always divine,
In our secret place our hearts will find,
All we need to get us through,
Is you holding me,
And me loving you.
Repeat first verse and Chorus out.
