Stolen Moments

OLIVER E. NELSON

You make choices, you know what the cost is
Then, you wait 'til the bills come due

All the voices to drown out the losses
But the feeling, it stays with you

Stolen Moments, the pleasure, the memories you treasure
the fun that you had even though you were bad
and you know that you'd paid at the end of a day
don't say I told you so

Stolen Moments is just an illusion
When you speak of a love affair
Whispered comments creating confusion
With your heart and soul laid bare

Well you know what the price is and now you're in crisis
You played in a game where the rules are the same.
Take time to recover as you dream of your lover
You have yourself to blame
Lover Man
Jimmy Davis, Ram Ramirez, and Jimmy Sherman

I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

The night is cold and I'm so all alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me
But no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me
Strange as it seems
Someday we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet
Little things in my ear
Hugging and a-kissing
Oh, what I've been missing
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
