High above the city on a cold December eve,
we gently held each others hand and you cried on my sleeve.
But your tears turned into joy and a smile replaced the frown
as we sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down, we watched the sun go down.

Your hair flowed across your cheek, framing beauty and your fear.
An orange streak ran down your face where the sun lit up your tear.
Both afraid to admit what this might become,
As we sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down, we watched the sun go down.

24 hours – A blink in the eye of life, a star in the sky of time 24 hours – To dream of life if I were yours and you were mine 24 hours – A grain of sand on the beach of history
Enough to show you my soul and how much you mean to me.

I wrapped my arms around you and held you oh so tight.
lost in the thrill of love’s first kiss, we descended in the night.
Something special started that night, in that crazy town,
when we sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down, we watched the sun go down.

Afraid to fall in love again with someone far away.
To give your heart to someone who you think cannot repay.
But this feeling is worth keeping I’m sure we both have known,
since we sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down, we watched the sun go down.

Since we sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down We sipped champagne together and watched the sun go down.
