Tom Cochrane - The Secret Is to Know When to Stop Lyrics

Do you remember the night the lights went out
All along the promenade
It started to rain, my coat, your dress got wet
We laughed 'til we almost cried

Your spirit was so contagious
Our timing really bad
You were so outrageous
How could we hold back?

The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
Remembering

Do you remember the night that we ran out
Out on the English Bay
We went out on the water
The tow almost pulled us away

Man, right there the sparks would fly
We'd get into such a mess
Our timing really stunk back then
We didn't give a damn what they thought, I guess

The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
Remembering

And maybe when the skies flew open
Right then the lines would be broken
Your eyes they did all the talking
Keep your heart open wide

Can you remember the trip we took
In the Malibu to the west coast
We drove through a rainbow up on Roger's Pass
They never thought you'd get that close

The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
Remembering

The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
The secret is to know when to stop
Remembering

The secret is to know when to stop
(The secret is to know when to stop)
The secret is to know when to stop
(The secret is to know when to stop)
The secret is to know when to stop
(The secret is to know when to stop)
Remembering
