A long and lasting love Not many people find it But those who do their whole life through Put their heart and soul behind it A long and lasting love A long and lasting love Is what I've always dreamed of And when I look into your eyes I knew I'd really seen love A long and lasting love We share for many reasons A special bond That goes beyond the changing of the seasons A long and lasting love A long and lasting love Someone I can care for Someone to bethere for the rest of my life A long and lasting love I never thought that I would meet someone so beautiful I never thought I'd see a love like this Tonight I'll show you that our love is something beautiful And I'll seal it with a kiss A long and lasting love Is what I've always dreamed of And when I looked into your eyes I knew I'd really seen love A long and lasting love A long and lasting love
