For all I've been blessed with in this life
There was an emptiness in me
I was imprisoned by the power of gold
With one kind/honest* touch you set me free

Let the world stop turning, let the sun stop burning
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life I was Loved by you

For every mountain I have climbed
Every raging river crossed
You were the treasure that I longed to find
Without your love I would be lost

Let the world stop turning, let the sun stop burning
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life I was Loved by you

I know that I won't live forever
But forever I'll be loving you

(Instrumental Break)

Let the world stop turning, let the sun stop burning
Let them tell me love's not worth going through
If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life I was Loved by you
In this life I was Loved by you


* kind or honest, depending on performer
