Why must you shed such tender tears In the evening of your years No other love could stem the tide Of the loneliness I hide Open your heart and let me live All the promises I could give The sun and moon and all the stars They bow down to you Whenever you pass In a world of fading sadness An emerald ring, a photograph That look in your eyes the brush of your cheek These are the moments in life that I seek No reason or rhyme, no presence of mind Just a dance to the music of time ♪ Open your heart and let me live All the promises I could give The sun and moon and all the stars They bow down to you Whenever you pass No reason or rhyme, no presence of mind Just a dance to the music of time
