Lyrics

Here I am, and closing my eyes again
Trying so hard not to see
All the things that I see
Almost willing to lie again
I swear that it just isn't so
It just isn't me
We are never alone
Even though we'd like to be
Then I go and open my eyes again
Love in your eyes is the thing
That I'd most like to see
I'd be willing to die again
To know of a place and a time
That it always would be
To be always with you
And you, always with me
This is my autograph
Here in the songs I sing
Here in my cry, in my laugh
Here in the love that I bring
To be always with you
And you, always with me
Say a prayer and open your heart again
You are the love and the life
That we all need to see
Always willing to shine, and then
Peace on this earth is the way
That it always can be
To be always with you
And you, always with me
This is my autograph
Here in the songs that I sing
Here in my cry, in my laugh
Here in the love that I bring
To be always with you
And you, always with me
