The Thought Of Loving You Lyrics - Manhattan Transfer

The thought of loving you, the way Im longing to 

A thousand hopeful dreams I have are finally coming true 

I used to put you on a pedestal where you became untouchable 

But now we touch and now so much is possible 

Just being near to you, would be enough for me 

The many years without your love have been so tough on me 

But now a change has taken place in me, I found someone 

Whose faith in me has given me the strength I need so desperately 

Oh, in my darkness you turn on the light, my illusions vanish overnight 

The thought of loving you is now reality, the thousand dreams I have 

Ill know in the end how it could be, for as we melt in love so beautiful 

I never felt so wonderful, the thought of loving you 

The way Im loving you right now 

In the darkness you turn on the light 

My illusions vanish overnight, in the darkness
