By michael mcdonald & randy goodrum      Sometimes it seems to me   A long and tender love   Is just not meant to be   It's just not of this world      The more we live with this love   The more we learn to ignore   We keep our feelings inside   Until we open the door      Chorus:   It's in my heart, it's in your eyes   It's waving us on   Till everything stops, everything dies   (we can't stop now, we've come this far)   Don't let me down      'cause in it's darkest hour   A love that's still worthwhile   Will always stand it's ground   If we just realize      The more we give to this love   The more we know that it's right   But if the time ever comes   That we should look for that light      Chorus:
