What is it about a kiss that makes me feel like this...oh oh
What is it that makes my heart beat fast when I'm in your arms...oh oh
What is it about your touch that amazes me so much
How is it that your sweet smile can get me through the hardest mile...oh oh
What's the magic in your eyes that brings the love in me alive...oh oh
What is it about this dance the sweetness of our romance
That makes me feel this way

[Chorus]
These are the echoes of Eden
Reflections of what we were created for
Hints of the passion and freedom
That waits on the other side of Heaven's door
These are the echoes of Eden

How is it the sky turns gray anytime you're far away...oh oh
What is it that makes me sad anytime you're feeling bad...oh oh
What is it about this night the music and the candlelight
That makes me feel this way

[Chorus]

What is it about this night the music and the candlelight
That makes me feel this way...
