JEWEL I Love You Forever lyrics

You and I walking slowly
Hand in hand, footprints in the sand
Watch the wind as it plays
Throwing shadows across your face

The sky was so blue
Your eyes so green, the air glittering
So sudden so swift
Love came to us just like a gift

I lived here, you lived far away
Our lives called us back, no we could not stay
With a sad sort of smile you took my hand
Said, "While we are apart you hope I understand that"

You'll be holding me and I'll be holding you
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through
When you see the stars pretend they are my arms
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there

Say you love me and I will say I love you
No distance could ever make that untrue
When I'm far away I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind, you'll hear me saying
I love you forever

Fast forward our love story
Still remember that day, her small precious face
You stared into her eyes
Hypnotized by her smile

But your job meant that you had to travel
But we weren't ready for you to go
You held our daughter with a sad sort of smile
Said, "While we're apart I want you to know that"

You'll be holding me and I'll be holding you
Through those long nights, my love will be pulling you through 

When you see stars, pretend they are my arms
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there

Say you love me and I will say I love you
No distance could ever make that untrue
When I'm far away, I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind, you'll hear me saying
I love you forever

God forbid there'll come a day
When the light in my eyes fades away
But from your hearts I will not go
No bounds shall my spirit know

'Cause you'll be holding me and I'll be holding you
Through those dark nights, my love will be pulling you through
When you see the stars, pretend they are my arms
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there

Say you love me and I will say I love you
No distance could ever make that untrue
When I'm far away, I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind, you'll hear me saying
I love you forever

You'll be holding me and I will be holding you
Through those dark nights, my love will be pulling you through
When you see the stars, pretend they are my arms
When you feel the air that is me kissing you there

Say you love me and I will say I love you
No distance could ever make that untrue
When I'm far away, I'll reach through time and space
When you hear the wind, you'll hear me saying
I love you forever
