NOW AS THEN

A NEW DAY BEGINS

ON THE HORIZONS GLOW

THE SUN RISING

FROM DOWN BELOW

MOVING COLORS

PATCHWORK IN THE SKY

IS THAT YOU

KNEELING BY THE STREAM

WATCHING REFLECTIONS UNAWARE

CAUGHT INSIDE A DREAM

I WATCH OVER YOU

I CAN'T SEEM TO MOVE

I CATCH YOUR EYE

I'M DRAWN TO YOUR SIDE

BY YOUR WILL

SOMEWHERE ELSE

SOME OTHER TIME I'VE SEEN

ANOTHER LIFE

I HELD OUT MY HAND TO YOU

THE BANNERS FLUTTERED IN THE WIND

IT MUST OF BEEN YOU

ME CONTESTING YOUR HAND

FROM THE BEGINNING

YOU WERE ALWAYS PART OF THE PLAN

TO THE FATE I'M ASSIGNED

EVERYTHING THIS FAR

HAS BEEN LEADING TO

THESE MOMENTS HERE WITH YOU

YOU JUST PAST THE DAWN

SUN RAYS SURROUND YOU

NOW AS THEN

YOU TAKE MY HAND

FULL CIRCLE NOW ITS ALL COMPLETE

I NO LONGER HAVE TO COMPETE

TO BE THE ONE

TO TAKE YOUR HEART FROM HERE

I KNEW I WOULD HOLD YOU AGAIN

FAMILIAR JUST BENEATH MY SKIN

I'M NOT AFRAID TO SAY

I WONDERED IF I'D GET MY WAY

HAVE YOU ONCE AND FOR ALL

OF TIME

NOW AS THEN
