I can see it in your eyes and feel it in your touch
I know that you're scared, but you've never been this loved
It's a long shot, baby, I know it's true
But if anyone can make it, I'm betting on me and you
Just keep on moving in to me
I know you're going to see
The best is yet to come

[Chorus]
Don't fear it now; we're going all the way
Where the sun is shining on a brand new day
It's a long way down, and it's a leap of faith
But I'm never giving up 'cause I know we got a once in a lifetime love

Everybody's looking for what we've found
Some wait their whole lives and it never comes around
So don't hold back now
Just let go of all you've ever known
And put your hand in mine

[Chorus]

I close my eyes, and I see you standing right there
Saying 'I do,' and they're throwing rice in our hair
Then the first one's born; then a brother comes along, and he's got your smile
I'll be looking back at the life we had still at your side

So don't fear it now, we're going all the way
Where the sun is shining on a brand new day
It's a long way down, and it's a leap of faith
But I'm never giving up 'cause I know we got a once in a lifetime love
