Tradition of Love

The Pretenders

Don't you go away 
C'mon get close to me 
The hassles of the day 
Have made a real mess of me 

The moon is in the sky 
And the stars are out tonight 
They shimmer in the pools of your eyes 
In the moonlight 

You're so nice to touch 
Lovely to look at 
Touch, touch 
In the tradition of love 

Hear the summer breeze 
All the nighttime's listening 
Your eyes are sparkling now 
And their oceans glistening 

Sail upon a sea 
Of love filling the room 
Lilacs seem to be 
Everywhere with their perfume 

Love, love 
Love, love 
Love, love 

You can in a breath 
Blow the storm clouds out the sky 
A hurricane retreats 
In the blinking of your eye 
A flame within my heart 
Is ignited by your voice 
C'mon baby now 
Let's make love our final choice 

Ooh you're nice to touch 
Lovely to look at 
Touch, touch 
In the tradition of love 

Love, love 
Love, love 
Love, love
