Lyrics

I spend the night
Yeah looking for my insides in a hotel room
Waiting for you

Were gonna make it tonight
Yeah something in the air tells me the time is right
So we`d better get it on

And DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please, play a song for the lovers, tonight

Don`t wanna wait
Lord I`ve been waiting all my life but I`m too late again
I know but I was scared

Can`t you see
I`m moving like a train into some foreign land
I ain`t Got a Ticket for this ride but I will

Ooh, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lover, tonight
DJ, play a song for the Lovers, tonight
Please play a song for the Lovers, tonight

Can`t stop looking back no no

One more for the lovers

Oh brother won`t you lend a hand I`m alone in a room and I`m waiting for love I don`t know when this trains gonna stop But I`m telling you friend I don`t want to get up
