Rendezvous
Tygers Of Pan Tang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A fantasy come true
I've had to wait so long
We've got to see it through
No time to hesitate
Baby, don't make me wait
We'll be in paradise
We could be there tonight
I know we've been friends
For such a long time
You cried on my shoulder
While I waited in line
I said to myself that's what best friends are for
But there's something I've been holding back
I've never said before
Let's make a Rendezvous
A fantasy come true
I've had to wait so long
We've got to see it through
No time to hesitate
Baby, don't make me wait
We'll be in paradise
We could be there tonight
Don't wait any longer
Let down your defense
Girl, trying to fight it
Don't make any sense
I know what I see when I look in your eyes
Baby, what I'm saying to you
Should come as no surprise
Let's make a Rendezvous
A fantasy come true
I've had to wait so long
We've got to see it through
No time to hesitate
Baby don't make me wait
We'll be in paradise
We could be there tonight
