It was a slow start,
but at least we got there.
Started with names,
worked up the courage, to get where,
we could talk every night,
about how I could hold you tight.
I know where, I go from here with you...

And you'll lift your head and say "Goodnight".
And I know everything will be alright.
And when you say "Goodbye" for the first time,
I know that forever, forever you'll be mine.

So Miss Wickwire,
what do you see in me?
Am I some kind of king,
are you my queen?
Do we journey, through the world,
hand in hand, like every other boy and girl?
Or are we something special, not known?
Because I think you're special all on your own.

And you'll lift your head and say "Goodnight".
And I know everything will be alright.
And when I hold your hand in mine,
I know that forever, forever you'll be mine.

When you lift your head up,
and say "Goodnight".
I know, everything,
will be alright.
And when I'll hold your hand in mine,
I won't want to say goodbye.
But if you lift your head and say "Goodnight",
I know everything will be, alright.

And you'll lift your head and say "Goodnight".
And I know everything will be alright.
And when I hold your hand in mine,
I know that forever, forever you'll be mine.

Forever, you'll be mine.
