Lyrics

[Intro]
Ladies and gentlemen, Esther Hoffman Howard
[Verse 1]
With one more look at you
I could learn to tame the clouds and let the sun shine through
Leave a troubled past, and I might start anew
I'll solve the mysteries if you're the prize
Refresh these tired eyes
With one more look at you
[Verse 2]
I might overcome the anger that I've learned to know
Find a peace of mind I lost so long ago
Your gentle touch has made me strong again
And I'll belong again
[Chorus]
For when you look at me
I'm everything and more than I had dreamed I'd be
My spirit feels a promise, I won't be alone
We'll love and live more, love and live forever
[Chorus]
With one more look at you
I'd learn to change the stars and change our fortunes too
I'd have the constellations paint your portrait too
So all the world might share this wondrous sight
The world could end each night
With one more look at you
With one more look at you
I want one more look at you
[Chorus]
Are you watching me now?
Watch closely now
[Verse 3]
Your eyes are like fingers
Touching my body
Arousing me so
I'm riding the passion arising inside me
How high can I go?
[Verse 4]
You're coming with me
I'm gonna show you how
And when it's scary I, I won't look down
[Chorus]
Are you watching me now? Oh-oh-oh-oh
Watch closely now
[Verse 5]
I see the hunger arise in your eyes
And it's urging me, urging me, urging me on
Higher and harder, and it's faster and farther
Than I've ever gone
Your pleasure is part of the secret of flight that I found
[Bridge]
When I feel like an eagle, my soul has no place on the ground
Born out of madness, I'll double the danger with no net at all
If you don't look away, I'm secure in the fact that you won't let me fall
[Chorus]
Watch closely now
Are you watching me now?
[Verse 6]
I'm the master magician who'll help you escape
From the lies you've been told
When they're breaking your back, bring the last straw to me
I turn straw into gold
[Bridge]
I break chains made of boredom that others have lived with for years
I put good news on doorsteps and laughs where there used to be tears
I'm gonna need you later when you're not around
But I can take it, yeah, I won't look down
[Outro]
Watch closely now
Are you watching me now?
Watch me now
Are you watching me now?
Are you watching me now?
