Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hearts gone astray, keepin' up when they go
I went away just when you needed me so
You won't regret, I'll come back beggin' you
Don't you forget, welcome love we once knew, yeah
[Verse 2]
Open up your eyes, then you'll realize
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side, come and be my pride
You'll never be denied everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Feel the love you got, everlasting love
This love will last forever
This love will last forever
[Verse 3]
Hearts gone astray, keepin' up when they go
I went away just when you needed me so
You won't regret, I'll come back beggin' you
Don't you forget, welcome love we once knew, yeah
[Verse 4]
When life really flows, no one really knows
The sun will have to show the way to lasting love
Like the sun, it shines, endlessly it shines
You always will be mine, eternal love
Whenever love went wrong, ours would still be strong
We'd have our own everlasting love
This love will last forever
This love will last forever
[Verse 5]
Open up your eyes, then you'll realize
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side, come and be my pride
Never be denied everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Feel the love you got, everlasting love
Everlasting love, everlasting love
Everlasting love, everlasting love
