I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where to find the answers
And I know just how to lie.

I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream.

And I know just where to touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose.

And I know the night is fading
And I know that time's gonna fly
And I'm never gonna tell you everything I've got to tell you
But I know I've got to give it a try

And I know the roads to riches
And I know the ways to fame
I know all the rules and then I know how to break 'em
And I always know the name of the game.

But I don't know how to leave you
And I'll never let you fall
And I don't know how you do it
Making love out of nothing at all
Out of nothing at all [making love]

Every time I see you all the rays of the sun
Are streaming through the waves in your hair
And every star in the sky is taking aim
At your eyes like a spotlight

The beating of my heart is a drum, and it’s lost
And it’s looking for a rhythm like you.
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright.

I’ve got to follow it, ’cause everything I know
Well it’s nothing till I give it to you.

I can make the run or stumble,
I can make the final block
And I can make every tackle, at the sound of the whistle
I can make all the stadiums rock.

I can make tonight forever
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made
And I can make all your demons be gone.

But I’m never gonna make it without you
Do you really want to see me crawl
And I’m never gonna make it like you do
Making love out of nothing at all.
