Somewhere in time, you came into my worl Love was beyond what I imagined love would be Now just a dream I hold till the end of time Hoping someday we'll find what we left behind
There'll come a day our paths will meet again We'll cross the bridge of time and space to a love that's free No more goodbyes, no lonely waiting There'll be a day to love,to live all our dreams
If we believe and keep alive The hope that love will stand the test of distance and time Then we shall find our new tomorrow somewhere in time
Someday there'll be no time between us There'll just be endless days for us to love and share We'll rise above the tears of our lonely years Into a world beyond today in another somewhere
If we believe and keep alive The hope that love will stand the test of distance and time Then we shall find our new tomorrow somewhere in time
Someday there'll be no time between us There'll just be endless days for us to love and share We'll rise above the tears of our lonely years Into a world beyond today in another somewhere
Where do I begin To tell the story of how great a love can be The sweet love story that is deeper than the sea The simple truth about the love she brings to me Where do I start
With her first hello She gave a meaning of 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 angel′s songs with wild imaginings She fills my soul with so much love That anywhere I go I′m never lonely
With her alone who could be lonely I reach for her hand it′s always there 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 need her till the stars all burn away And she′ll be there

Anywhere you go let me go too . . . Love me - that's all I ask of you . .
Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours Think of all the great things we would do
Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we'd choose We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern, We'd smile at one another and we'd say...
Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we'd choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Just tonight I stood before the tavern. Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me?
Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we'd choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da, La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da---
Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same....
Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we'd choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da La-da-da da-da-da, La-da-da da-da-da La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da---

Some say love it is a river That drowns the tender reed Some say love it is a razor That leaves your soul to bleed Some say love it is a hunger An endless aching need I say love it is a flower and you its only seed
It′s the heart afraid of breaking That never learns to dance It′s the dream afraid of waking That never takes the chance It′s the one who won′t be taken Who cannot seem to give And the soul afraid of dyin′ That never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely And road has been too long And you think that love is only For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter beneath the bitter snow Lies the seed that with the sun′s love In the spring becomes the rose
When all the world is a hopeless jumble And the raindrops tumble all around Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway There′s a rainbow highway to be found Leading from your window pane To a place behind the sun Just a step beyond the rain
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high There′s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true
Someday I′ll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops away above the chimney tops That′s where you′ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then oh why can′t I If happy little blue birds fly beyond the rainbow Why oh why can′t I
Memories like the colors of my mind Misty water color memories of the way we were Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be that it was so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had chance to do it all again Tell me would we could we
Memories may be beautiful and yet What′s too painful to remember We simply choose to forget
So it′s the laughter we′ll remember Whenever we remember The way we were The way we were
