All this time, we were only what we dreamed
and all those dreams were true.. But we never really knew
and all this time, we shared a perfect love
and all that love was always enough

time to dream.. Of autumn days and summer nights
time to love.. In the sweet glow of candlelights

So all this time, we never thought would end
and then the end would leave us in emptiness

We could have forever in our hands
loneliness was never in our plans
could we ever disappear like footprints in the sand?

Understand that life is such a slender thread
take my hand and remember the things we said

I see it all so perfectly
stopping in a shop to try a hat on
laughing till we couldn't breathe
in the park, that bench we sat on

sharing all my secret fears
I never told to anybody
how you tried to hide your tears
when you gave yourself to me

All this time, you promised me you'd never leave
all this time, can it last for eternity?

A seed is planted then it grows
how it happens, no one knows
flowers opens to the sun
We're blinded by the beauty of it

The petals fall and soon they fade
all this wonder, blown away
on the winds of time they ride
the flower's gone and the plant has died

from it all there springs a seed
nature understands just what is needed
the send is in the ground and then
the cycle can begin again

All this time we had our day
though the night is on its way
now I see.. now I know
that I can finally let you go

All this time, you promised me you'd never leave
all this time, can it last for eternity?
