Lyrics
Hello, yeah, it’s been a while
Not much, how about you?
I’m not sure why I called
I guess I really just wanted to talk to youAnd I was thinking maybe later on
We could get together for a while
It’s been such a long time
And I really do miss your smileI’m not talking about moving in
And I don’t want to change your life
But there’s a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I’d really love to see you tonightWe could go walking through a windy park
Or take a drive along the beach
Or stay at home and watch TV
You see it really doesn’t matter much to meI’m not talking about moving in
And I don’t want to change your life
But there’s a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I’d really love to see you tonightI won’t ask for promises
So you don’t have to lie
We’ve both played that game before
Say I love you and say goodbyeI’m not talking about moving in
And I don’t want to change your life
But there’s a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I’d really love to see you tonight
