I knew it right from the start
The moment I looked at you
You found a place in my heartYou Are The Love Of My Life
You give me reason to live
You taught me how to be strong
With you is where I belongNo one's ever touched me
Quite the way you touched me
People search a life time
To find what we haveYou Are The Love Of My Life
One thing that's good in this life
I'll spend the rest of my days
Just loving youYou Are The Love Of My Life
The heart and sould of my life
Once I was lost and alone
With you at last I am homeYou Are The Love Of My Life
You give me reason to live
You give me so much of you
And leave me room to be freeNo one's ever touched me
Quite the way you touched me
People search a life time
To find what we haveYou Are The Love Of My Life

And in a world full of change
One thing I'm sure ofYou Are The Love Of My Life
The one thing that makes sense in this world

Just loving you...You Are The Love Of My Life
And I thank GOD I'm alive

Whoa! My love, my darling,
I hunger for your touch,
Alone. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea,
To the open arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me,
I'll be coming home, wait for me.
Whoa! My love, my darling,
I hunger, hunger!, for your love,
For love. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.

comin' home is always joy to me
ain't a place that i would rather be
i need to see the heaven in your eyes
cause you're the love that's always hard to find
every dreams that's ever crossed my mind
only you can make the day end right

chorus:
so turn out the lamplight
sit by my side
love me tonight
so turn out the lamplight
let's dream for a while
just you and i
and we'll let the world go spinning by

on a day when problems get me down
it's nice to think about the love we found
all i need is you and i'll get by
and though the years may make me old and grey
darlin' you'll still take my breath away
'cause time can't change the warmth
inside your smile

chorus...

Are we really happy here
With this lonely game we play
Looking for words to say
Searching but not finding
understanding anywhere
We're lost in a masquerade

Both afraid to say
we're just too far away
From being close together
from the start
We tried to talk it over
but the words got in the way
We're lost
inside this lonely game we play

Thoughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reasons
that we carry on this way
We're lost in a masquerade

Are we really happy with
This lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say
Searching but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost in this masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Throughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
That we carry on this way
We're lost in this masquerade

We could just start over but it's oh so hard to do
When you're lost in a masquerade

I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well
and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty
they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride
to make it easier
Let the children's laughter
remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone
to look up to
I never found anyone
who fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me
Chorus:
I decided long ago,
never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all
I believe the children are our future
Teach them well
and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty
they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride
to make it easier
Let the children's laughter
remind us how we used to be
Chorus
And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
