echo I have always loved, I've hoped to form a lifetime,
The promise made by this heart of mine,
Hold the line, You know one day I will come,
I will come for you.

You don't know what it's like, for all your hopes to rise,
to see them fall again with the setting sun,
My heart you're the one, I know one day you will come,
You will come for me.

I will come for you, and grow old forever,
Together in love, to settle in the calm,
Following loves sound,
It's just you and I, never let you down,
I will never let you down.

Ta-ma-ha-na-ha,
Heh Nah-Lo Doy, La Coo-La Doe
It's just you and I for a lifetime.

I will always love you, and not just for this lifetime,
The promise made by this heart of mine,
You're the one, I knew one day you would come,
You would come for me.

I will come for you, and grow old forever,
Together in love, to settle in the calm,
Following loves sound,
It's just you and I, never let you down,
I will never let you down.

Ta-ma-ha-na-ha,
Heh Nah-Lo Doy, La Coo-La Doe
It's just you and I for a lifetime

Ta-ma-ha-na-ha,
Heh Nah-Lo Doy, La Coo-La Doe
Heh Nah-Lo Doy, La Coo-La Doe
