As Dreams Go By

When the white bird flies
From your heart to mine
I surrender every part of me
To the tenderness

Could it be the wine
In your eyes stars shine
And I'm feeling like a child again
Oh, it's taken me a little time
To find words to say

[Chorus:]
Stay
Make this forever
And lay love in my life
Cherish each moment of love
As dreams go by

If the first glow fades
From the love we've made
I will hold you closer
In the night
Under heart and key

When there are hills to climb
And your world won't rhyme
I will fight until I get it right
'Cause you're part of me
The heart of me
Only if you'll stay

[Chorus]

The trees and the towers are burning
Fear walks on the sea
My soul in the wasteland is yearning
What does tomorrow hold for me

What can I say
Just that I need you
With you here by my side
We can turn even the desert
Evergreen, as dreams go by
