As Dreams Go By
When the white bird flies
from your heart to mine,
I surrender every part of me
to the tenderness.
Could it be the wine?
In your eyes stars shine,
and I'm feeling like a child again.
Oh, it's taken me a little time
to find words to say
Stay.
Make this forever,
and lay love in my life.
Come what may,
cherish each moment of love
as dreams go by.
If the first glow fades
from the love we've made,
I will hold you closer in the night
under heart and key.
When there are hills to climb,
and your world won't rhyme,
I will fight until I get it right;
'Cause your part of me,
the heart of me,
if only you'll stay.
Stay.
Make this forever,
and lay love in my life.
Come what may,
cherish each moment of love
as dreams go by.
The trees and the towers are burning.
Fear walks on the sea.
My soul in the wasteland is yearning.
What does tomorrow hold for me?
Oh, no.
What can I say?
Just that I need you.
With you here by my side, we can turn even the desert evergreen
as dreams go by.
Oh, won't you stay?
Make this forever,
and lay love in my life.
Come what may,
cherish each moment of love
as dreams go by.
All I Need To Know
by Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil and Tom Snow
Look at my face. I know the years are showin'.
Look at my life. Still don't know where it's goin'.
I don't know much, but I know I love you,
and that may be all I need to know.
Look at these eyes. Oh, they never see what matters.
And look at these dreams, so beaten and so battered.
I don't know much, but I know I love you,
and that may be all I need to know.
So many questions and still no answers.
I climb and climb but never get the view.
But when I hold you near me sometimes I feel so clearly
the only truth I'll ever know is me and you.
In my heart I long for inspiration.
And in my soul I know someday I'll find salvation.
I don't know much, but I know I love you,
and that may be all I need to know.
In my heart you're my inspiration.
And in my soul I know love is our salvation.
I don't know much, but if I know you love me,
that will be all I need to know.
I don't know much, but if you say you love me,
that will be all I need to know
