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.
    Stay.
  Make this forever.
  Lay love in my life.
  Come what may,
  cherish each moment of love
  as dreams go by.
