~ Love Remains ~

We are born one fine day
Children of God on our way
Mama smiles, daddy cries
Miracle before their eyes
They protect us 'til we're of age
And through it all love remains

Boy moves on, takes a bride
She stands faithful by his side
Tears and sweat, they build a home
Raise a family of their own
They share joy and they share pain
Through it all love remains

Kingdoms come and go
But they don't last
Before you know
The future is the past
In spite of what's been lost
Or what's been gained
We are living proof
That love remains

I don't know, baby, what I'd do
On this earth without you
We all live, we all die
But the end is not goodbye
The sun comes up and seasons change
Through it all love remains
An eternal burning flame
Hope lives on and love remains . . .
