Darling... you are the world to me
The moon, the stars and the deep blue sea
And i'll always love you so
It's a feeling that will never, ever go
i will love you......
Till i can no longer feel the raindrops stinging
and in my ears, the wind's not ringing
Till my tears of aloneness no longer fall
as i await your long needed call
Till the flame of a lighted candle
does not whisper with the wind
and a child forgets the sound as the angels sing
Till a newborn's cry of pain does not rend my heart
and a fire dies with ne'er a spark
Till lovers never quarrel, and fear is not abound
where people once united, refuse to stand their ground
Till tomorrow is but a nightmare
in someone elses dream
and he and she come apart at the seams
Till the train stops the world from revolving
and no'one wants to get off
...'tis when i'll stop loving you
Till the numbers two and two
simply do not ring true
Till peace is merely something shadows see
ignoring you ------ ignoring me
Till a father loves his young nevermore
and a mother too
'tis then, and only then... i'll stop loving you
Till life is dead and the new dawn rises
to bring no more sweet surprises
Till lovers not the stars do see
as they woo each others hearts-to-be
Till the oak trees bare no hearts engraved
etched out of love, by those who braved
Till no sounds of birds come to your ears
and time alone adds to your tears
Till i've no breath within my bones
and God has come to take me home
...'tis when i'll stop loving you
