Time it was I had a dream

And you're the dream come true

 And if I had the world to give

 I'd give it all to you.

 I'll take you to the mountains

 I will take you to the sea

 I'll show you how this life became 

 A miracle to me.

 

 You'll fly away

 but take my hand until that day

 So when they ask how far love goes

 When my job's done, you'll be the one who knows.

 

 All the things you treasure most

 Will be the hardest one

 I will watch you struggle on

 For the answers come

 But I won't make it harder

 I'll be there to cheer you up

 I'll shine the light that guides you down

 The road you're walking on

 

 You'll fly away

 but take my hand until that day

 So when they ask how far love goes

 When my job's done, you'll be the one who knows.

 

 Before the mountains call to you

 Before you leave this home

 When I teach your heart to trust

 As I will teach my own

 But sometimes I will ask the moon

 Where it shined upon you last

 And shake my head and let me say

 It all went by so fast

 

 You'll fly away

 but take my hand until that day

 So when they ask how far love goes

 When my job's done, you'll be the one who knows.
