You came tonight and brought me purple roses
You treated me to caviar and to oysters
We drove around till midnight in your Bentley
You held my hand so tender and so gently

You seemed to feel the heartbeat of the city
You told me jokes so elegant and witty
But fairy-tales are melting in the morning
And still I need to keep my fires burning

Oh, baby keep on shining
Please, baby keep on shining
Oh, baby keep on shining
Just, baby keep on shining
Oh, baby keep on shining
Please, baby keep on shining
Never let me see you are burned out

We're moving on, the music's playing softly
You take me home, I tell you it's too early
You kiss my hand and say I'll call tomorrow
I hate to think you leave me staying solo

Help me, keep on shining…
Going faster
Playing the master
Forgetting conventions
And good [bad word] closer
Ignoring the gossip
'Cause nothing's important
If you really want it

You never, never let me worry
Keep telling me there is no hurry
You turn me on moving slow
Go, go, go, go…
