Now,
As the years going by
And that look in your eye -
It's the spark of desire.
It's the start of a fire.
There's no need to revise
Any thought in your mind.
I am thinking it, too,
I am thinking you'd
Come to me,
Cling to me,
Bring everything to me.
Be with me,
Pray with me,
Stay every day with me.
Live in me,
Love in me,
Live all your love in me.
Don't go away.
Would you please come and stay.
Would you tell me your name is the same as my name.
'Cause I long
To be with you now
And always, but how
Can this last out the time?
Can you always be mine?
There is God in your touch.
Need to feel you so much.
It's like Heaven to me.
If you choose
Can we
Stay
Every day
Of our lives
In this way?
Was it you,
Was it me,
That the world could not see?
In your arms
I have found
That there's no neutral ground.
It's a strange magic feeling
That keeps my head reeling,
A trick of the light,
Or the night,
Or the climate.
It's all
Wonderful and magic,
Love in a foreign land.
Fanciful and tragic,
Love in a foreign land.
Once
In a lifetime you find
A true meeting of minds,
And a sameness of heart
That is there from the start.
A real peace in your soul,
That is finally whole.
You have found one to care
And you share in their
Each breathing moment.
Two hearts beat in time.
Like a cosmic explosion
Less force is alive.
If you stay with me always
Then we will arrive
At the gates of the Garden,
Our own special Eden,
Our own private world
That no-one
can intrude on.
In time
You'll look at the world,
And think of the girl
You left far behind
Forgetting her lines.
A young child she was,
But then of the loss
You won't be surprised,
'Cause you know
That you
Grow every day
In your mind,
In your way.
It's a part of your life
That you can't throw away.
If you think for a moment
Then you'll hear me say.
It's a strange magic feeling
That keeps your head reeling.
A trick of the light
Or the night,
Or the climate.
It's all
Wonderful and magic,
Love in a foreign land.
Fanciful and tragic,
Love in a foreign land.
Wonderful and magic,
Love in a foreign land.
Fanciful and tragic,
Love in a foreign land.
