Lyrics

The autumn leaves were falling
On those old cathedral walls
There were candles in the darkness
Singing in the choir
And reading out the names
Of all the ones who've gone before
Well I could tell that you were thinking
About the meaning of it all

And you said to me "who will open up my eyes
To the wonder and the glory, and the stars in the sky"
And you said to me
"For this road I'm travelling on
I need someone beside me forever. who?"
And I said, "it's me, and I'm ready to go, ready to show
That I'll never let you down
And I want you to know, that this power will grow
Every day, every beat of my heart
Forever, forever..
We went down to the river
And we found a small cafe
They say that over in the corner
Sat the writer ernest hemmingway
And here he made his story of the lovers in the war
And through it all they stayed together till the rain had
To fall
And you said to me, "who will be the one apart
Who will teach me, with conviction all the ways of the
Heart?"
And you said to me
"On this journey of my life
I need someone to love me forever. who?"
And I said listen:
"It's me,and I'm ready to go
Ready to show, that I'll never let you down
And I want you to know, that this power will grow
Every day every beat of my heart
I love you, I love you, it's me
And I'll never let you down
And I want you to know that this power will grow
Every day every beat of my heart
Forever, I love you, forever..
