Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're not a dream
You're not an angel
[Verse 2]
I'm not a king
I'm a man
Take my hand
[Verse 3]
We'll make a space
In the lives that we planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go
[Verse 4]
Yes, we're different
Worlds apart
We're not the same
[Verse 5]
We laughed and played
At the start
Like in a game
[Verse 6]
You could have stayed
Outside my heart
But in you came
And here you'll stay
Until it's time for you to go
[Verse 7]
Don't ask why
Don't ask how
Don't ask forever, honey
Now
[Verse 8]
This love of mine
Had no beginning
It has no end
[Verse 9]
I was an oak
Now I'm a willow
Now I can bend
[Verse 10]
And though I'll never
In my life, see you again
Still I'll stay
Till it's time for you to go
[Verse 11]
Don't ask why of me
Don't ask how of me
Don't ask forever of me, honey
Love me
Love me
[Verse 12]
You're not a dream
You're not an angel
You're a woman
[Verse 13]
I'm not a king
I'm a man
Take my hand
[Verse 14]
We'll make a space
In the lives that we planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go
