Where do I begin
To tell the story of
How great a love can be..
The sweet love story that
Is older than the sea
The simple truth
About the love she brings to me
Where do I start...
With her first hello
She gave new meaning to
This empty world of mine
There'd never be another
Love, another time..
She came into my life
And made the living fine..
She fills my heart...
She fills my heart..
With very special things
With angels' songs ,
And wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go I'm never lonely
With her around, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand it's always there
Yesterday, when I was young
The taste of life was sweet
As rain upon my tongue
I teased at life as if
It were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze
May tease a candle flame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed,
The splendid things I planned
I always built, to last,
On weak and shifting sand
I lived by night and shunned
The naked light of day
And only now I see
How the years ran away.
Yesterday, when I was young.
So many happy songs
Were waiting to be sung.
So many wild pleasures
Lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled
Eyes refused to see.
I ran so fast that time
And youth at last ran out
I never stopped to think
What life was all about
And every conversation
I can now recall
Concerned itself with me,
And nothing else at all...
Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style someday
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going,I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end,
Waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend,
Moon river, and me....
How long does it last
Can love be measured
By the hours in a day
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her till
The stars all burn away
And she'll be there....
