Hearts gone astray, leaving hurt when they go
I went away, just when you needed me so
Filled with regret, I come back begging you
Forgive forget, with a love we once knew

[Chorus]
Open up your eyes, then you'll realize
Here I stand with my, everlasting love
Need you by my side, want to be your bride
You'll never be denied, everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Be a lasting part of everlasting love

Real love to last forever
Real love to last forever

Where life's river flows, no one really knows
Till someone's there to show the way to lasting love
Like the sun that shines, endlessly it shines
You always will be mine. It's eternal love
Whenever love went wrong, ours would still be strong
We'd have our very own, everlasting love

Real love to last forever
Real love to last forever

You give me
You give me
You give me everlasting love
You give me
You give me
You give me everlasting love
You give me
You give me
You give me everlasting love

You know you give it to me
Everlasting love

[Chorus]
Open up your eyes, then you'll realize
Here I stand with my, everlasting love
Need you by my side, want to be your bride
You'll never be denied, everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Be a lasting part of everlasting love

Real love to last forever
Real love to last forever

[Chorus]
Open up your eyes, then you'll realize
Here I stand with my, everlasting love
Need you by my side, want to be your bride
You'll never be denied, everlasting love
From the very start, open up your heart
Be a lasting part of everlasting love

Everlasting love
Everlasting love
Everlasting love
Everlasting love

You know you give me
You know you give me
You know you give it to me
Everlasting love

You know you give me
You know you give me
You know you give it to me
Everlasting love
Everlasting love
