[00:11.68]Children
[00:18.02]It was more fun to be children
[00:22.37]We just took life as it happened
[00:27.43]Run thru the days
[00:30.19]Don't look behind
[00:35.42]Over wink of an eye and it's over
[00:46.18]What a surprise to discover
[00:50.57]We were people ourselves
[00:55.38]What kind of people did we want to be
[01:01.03]No answer ever come to me.
[01:10.97]I didn't sleep at all last night
[01:17.65]Mom, I've come to you like yesterday
[01:21.96]About today
[01:30.89]Hon, come and sit by my side
[01:37.30]Listen to me
[01:41.70]Words come so hard
[01:45.50]But what my hear says
[01:50.99]I will give you.
[02:03.68]Because you are in love
[02:07.81]Your eyes begin to open
[02:12.95]As is you had awoken from a sleep
[02:20.98]Because you are in love
[02:27.53]You use imagination
[02:31.49]And lose you concentration
[02:35.26]When someone drops his name
[02:41.02]You're back in his arms as always
[02:45.98]Your day - dreams work out that way
[02:49.93]It's all just a trick you mind plays
[02:54.72]The more love grows
[02:57.74]The more it stays the same
[03:06.86](Same little girl who's frightened)
[03:09.24]But I love him so
[03:11.86](Same little girl who's sure)
[03:13.95]That she loves him so
[03:17.31](Sees with a woman's vision knows what a woman knows)
[03:23.47]Because we are in love
[03:28.52]We've reach for our tomorrow's
[03:32.71]And know we won't be lonely
[03:37.34]In laugher and in sorrows
[03:42.26]Where love abides
[03:45.70]There is the place we'll keep our home 	forever
[03:52.10]You and I
[03:54.54]Because we are in love.
[04:14.49]Where love abides
[04:17.88]There is the place we'll keep our home 	forever
[04:28.24]You and I
[04:32.10]Because we are in love.
