the look in your eyes as they meet mine
is more eloquent than any poet's rhyme
are there words to express what your eyes say
if there are i don't know them
if there are won't you show them to me

the song that is sung between your heart and mine
has been sung by the angels since the dawn of time
i could try for eternity to capture the tune
but no melody is as sweet
no harmony could complete us two

and i know should i look for the rest of my life
i'll never find another person so right
who will share in my sorrows cry with my tears
i'll face every tomorrow knowing you're near

for as long as i live you will be here with me
the love that we share any fool could see
it's a matter of trusting a matter of faith
a matter of giving more than you take

so i give you my heart for i know you won't break it
i give you my trust for you will not forsake it
i give you my love for i know just like me
you've been waiting a lifetime
longing a lifetime
looking a lifetime
for a love that will last for eternity
