When I was young and independent
All I wanted was to face the world alone
That was all before you came into my life
Now everything I do is better shared with you
If I could gather all our love, hold it in my arms
I would save it, in my heart for you
If I could capture all the beauty in the light of a setting sun
I would save it, in my heart for you
I don’t ever have to sit and wonder
How I’ll face a world that can be cold
Cause I’ve got you with me through the day and night
The gifts we share together can’t be bought or sold
If I could gather all our love …
There’s been times when life has knocked me down
And you’re there to put my arms around
And I hold on, I hold on
We’ve shared the beauty of a summer day
Found a place where we can steal away
On our own, away from the rest of the world
As time goes by our love grows stronger
The wind and rain won’t break the bond we share
And when you need someone to hold when times are rough
You’ll never have to search too far, you’ll always find me there
