Lyrics
The night’s long gone to morning
When I finally make it in,
But the overtime is over for a while.
The chair’s pushed to the window,
You were waiting up again,
And I see that you are sleeping with a smile.
The sunlight’s streaming on your face,
Your body’s warm and still
In the quiet of the room I hear you sigh.
And I love you in that moment,
And I know I always will,
In that moment something makes me realize:
With a love that never changes,
I will always think of you,
And we’ll always be together, whatever we go through,
And the world may love or hate us, our fortunes rise or fall,
But I know that I will love you
With a love that never changes at all.
There’s a whole day still before us,
So as gently as I can,
I pick you up and carry you to bed.
You smile at me and touch me,
Then you close your eyes again
And I lay you down and leave to let you rest.
There’s so much I have worked for,
And so many dreams I’ve dreamed,
And the closer that they get to coming true,
The more I’ve had to realize
How much you mean to me.
The future that I want I want with you.
With a love that never changes
I will always think of you
And we’ll always be together, whatever we go through,
And the world may love or hate us, our fortunes rise or fall,
But I know that I will love you
With a love that never changes at all.
