A long long time ago
I thought I was an empty man
And I'd tend to shuffle 'round
And though I smiled and laughed
My heart was on my sleeve
Suspended from a frown
And then you came into
What I believed was my life
And slowly turned my world around
And when I told you so
It set in motion a course
That I'm thankful I went down
And if I give you the sunrise
Will you wear it for me
And let it reflect in my eyes
All the beauty I see
And how love has set me free
I look out the window
And I know that we can fly
If we hold each other's hand
We may get tossed about
Or tumble through a storm of two
But I hope we never land
And as my life goes on
And all the years sneak by our door
I know just what I'll do
I'll pray to God each day
And thank him for the gentle way
That he led me to you
And if I give you the sunrise
Will you wear it for me
And let it reflect in my eyes
All the beauty I see
Now that love has set me free
