How much more can this heart take
How much emptiness and sorrow 'fore it breaks
Seems the less I search
The more I seem to find
Lady, you're on my mind

Some nights I must be dreaming
But it's all right
I see reflections in the skylight
I could swear they were you
And my heart it starts pounding for a new start
And soon it's sounding like a new love will be coming my way
Somewhere outside just around the corner
Outside, baby, I should warn her

I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
I must be coming on (I must be coming on)

You can take me 'round the bend
You can break me down put me back together again
It seems the less I look
The more I seem to like
Lady, who's on my mind, oh whoa

Some nights I must be dreaming
But it's all right
I see reflections in the skylight
I could swear they were you
Then my heart it starts pounding for a new start
And soon it's sounding like a new love will be coming my way
Somewhere outside just around the corner
Outside, baby, I should warn her

I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
I must be coming on (I must be coming on)

Some nights I must be dreaming
But it's all right
I see reflections in the skylight
I could swear they were you
Then my heart it starts pounding for a new start
And soon it's sounding like a new love will be coming my way
Somewhere outside just around the corner
Outside, baby, I should warn her

I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
I must be coming on (I must be coming on)
