Quiet moments at the edge of the sea   Silence washing like a wave over me   I can't help smiling when I think    Of how you've come to be   Such a strong part of me      I watch you sleeping   In the gray light of dawn   Half the covers off    And half of them on   And I can't help feeling I'm part    Of some grand design   And a love beyond time      I trace your cheekbone    With the edge of my thumb   I taste your shoulder    With the tip of my tongue   I smell the fragrance in your hair    Of the sun and sea   Of the sun on the sea      I watch the play of light   And shade on your skin   I hear you whisper    That you want me again.   And I rise to greet your grateful lips    Once again with mine   And a love beyond time      No one could ever love you more   No one could ever love you more than I.   No soul could ever shelter yours   No soul could ever shelter yours like mine   Though the world may rage around us   We're safe within the storm   With a love beyond time   With a love beyond time      Now we've both known    Our share of failures before   We both drove    Our share of ships on the shore   We both know the cost    Of dreaming too hard, too high   Of dreaming too high      But now it seems    That every step that we missed   Was just a trick of fate    To lead us to this   When we can share    The taste of something that's so sublime   As a love beyond time      No one could ever love you more   No one could ever love you more than I.   No soul could ever shelter yours   No soul could ever shelter yours like mine   Though the world may rage around us   We're safe within the storm   With a love beyond time   With a love beyond time      With a love beyond time   With a love beyond time
