Baby, baby, fallin'' in love
I''m fallin'' in love again

I could never see 
What fate had meant for me
And then you came 
And made my dreams match reality
Maybe you can see 
All the things you''ve meant to me
And my simple fate is at the gate 
And, girl, you''ve got the key

It seems like yesterday 
You and I first loved this way
But now I know how love 
Can grow with each and every day
As we lay at midnight''s hour 
And feel love''s hidden power
So strong and bold 
As life unfolds its mystery to me

You and me for eternity 
In love will always be
Young and free and that should be 
The way it''s gotta be
