Love Is Our Cross to Bear

I didn't know where to look for you last night

I didn't know where to find you

I didn't know how I could touch that light

That's always gathering behind you

I didn't know that I would find a way

To find you in the morning

But love can pull you out of yesterday

As it takes you without warning

I want to be a long time friend to you

I want to be a long time known

Not one of your memory's used-to-bes

A summer's fading song

It's from me, it's to you

For your eyes

It's a weight, a wonder that is wise

I am here, you are there

Love is our cross to bear

I know I'll think of us upon that hill

With the golden moon arising

And the stars will fall around us still

While the love is realizing

And so it is until we meet again

And I throw my arms around you

You can count the gray hairs in my head

I'll still be thankful that I found you

It's from me, it's to you

For your eyes

It's a weight, a wonder that is wise

I am here, you are there

Love is our cross to bear

Love is our cross to bear
