[Verse 1]
You better wrap yourself around me
It's a miracle that you've found me
I can't fool myself any longer
We're both willing, young and able
Let's put our cards on the table
This feelin's gettin' stronger
I see the sunlit tears in your eyes again
Now I realize
Maybe it's the right time
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it
We just gotta take it

[Chorus]
Endless are the nights
I stay with you
Endless are the dreams
You made come true
Forever in my arms
You're the reason tonight our love is endless

[Verse 2]
We better get ourselves together
Before we hit bad weather
And we can't go any further
Won't you give me some affection
Point me in the right direction
This storm is blowin' harder
Here comes that voice deep inside again
And it says to me
That maybe it's the right thing
Oh, maybe you're the right one
Ooh, and now I understand
You could've slipped through my hands

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I just can't wait anymore
There's a chance we can make it
We just gotta take it

[Chorus]3x
Endless are the nights
I stay with you
Endless are the dreams
You made come true
Forever in my arms
You're the reason tonight our love is endless

Tonight our love is endless (2x)

Toto is an American rock band formed in 1977 in Van Nuys in Los Angeles, California. The band’s current lineup consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), Shem von Schroeck (bass), and Shannon Forrest (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues, and jazz.

David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro, and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band’s eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV from 1982, Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits “Hold the Line”, “Rosanna”, and “Africa”. Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. Hungate left in 1982 followed by Kimball in 1984 but rejoined the band in 1998 until 2008. Jeff Porcaro died in 1992 of a heart attack. Hungate rejoined Toto as a touring musician and later a band member. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and was no longer an active member of the band.

The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 40 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
