lyrics

the night we met would prove to be
the planting of a love deep inside of me
the times we spent avoiding sleep
they still remain the fondest hours in memory

come my love we must make haste
for soon the daylight will invade
and our world, yes our world, will be displaced
stolen glances with grinning face
our hands held tight to keep the pace
with this time, oh our time, there is no waste

aware of love but speaking not of it
desiring to become more than friends
'til that day comes when we relent
to all that's building from within and we commit

devotion pledged by God's own grace
our lives entwined as one we make
and this life, yeah this life, is born again
with alabaster and olive skin
combined together, enveloping
in this night, yeah this night, we're done waiting

we've reached the precipice of days
with dwindling depth left of life's page
by your side, by my side, we will remain
with final breaths through struggling
we speak our love in whisperings
oh this love, yeah this love, it's undying
