To love - and be loved

That's what life's - all about

Keeps the stars - coming out

What makes a sad heart sing - the birds take wing

 

To love - and be loved

That's what living - is for

Makes me want you the more - the more we cling

 

Let others race - to the moon

Through time and space - to the moon

My goal is greater than this

To reach your lips - to share your kiss

 

To stay - in your arms

Is the dream - I pursue

To be sheltered - and safe - from the storm

To be cozy - and ever - so warm

 

And for always - to love

And be loved - by you
