Like the rose that blooms in the wintertime   As it reaches up through the snow   The more life keeps apart   The more love will grow      Like the seed that grows in the darkness   As it reaches up to the sun   I will always reach out for you   'Cause you are the one      I bless the wings that bring you   Back across the shore   If I could touch you now, my darling   And love you just once more      If I could hold you   Hold you, hold you   I know you'd understand   I know you'd understand      As I cross the bridge by the waterfall   As I make my way by the stars   There's a shadow walking beside me   Here in my heart      Like the restless wind in the tree tops   Like a whispered voice in my ear   I will always be there for you   I'll always be here      I bless the wings that bring you   Back across the shore   If I could touch you now, my darling   And love you just once more      If I could hold you   Hold you, hold you   I know you'd understand   I know you'd understand      In a far off wonderland   That flashes past my eyes   The kiss of inspiration that was mine      The dust of many centuries   Has blown across this land   But love will not be scattered by the sand      Like the sunrise over the mountainside   Like the bird that has to be free   There's a part of you   That will always be part of me      I bless the wings that bring you   Back across the shore   If I could touch you now my, darling   And love you just once more      If I could hold you   Hold you, hold you   I know you'd understand   I know you'd understand   I know you'd understand   I know you'd understand
