lyrics

I want my finest hour to be
When everything that’s closest to me is a part of you
Tell me is it true
That we can be each other

I want my greatest power to be
That everything I wanted to see comes shining through
Tell me is it true
This life of love
The sight of it all

Why is everything I do a little frightful
Everything I do just seems a little wrong
Life, what a fabulous place to live
What a wonder to carry on

Every time I think I finally have the answer
In comes someone else who did in half as long
Life, what a terrible place to learn
What a struggle to carry on

I want my finest hour to be
When everything I struggle to understand is true
Then what would I do
But sit around and wonder

Tell me is it true, This life of love, In spite of it all

Every time I think I finally have the answer
In comes someone else to tell me that I’m wrong
Life, What a puzzling place to live
What a wonder we’re taking it on
