Lyrics
When night lingers on forever
And alone is the cross you bear
When you think that no one’s with you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
When the world falls around your shoulders
And you’re left holding sorrow and despair
When you think that no one needs you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
I’ll be there every morning
I’ll invade your dreams at night
I’ll come to you on shadows
Of the softest candle light
You won’t have to call long distance
Or go running off to who knows where
So I just close your eyes and wish me with you
Then search your heart you’ll find me there
If time ever loses its meaning
Like some philosophers declare
And you need someone there with you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
When you least expect it
I’ll catch you unaware
When you think I’m gone forever
Search your heart you’ll find me there.
And alone is the cross you bear
When you think that no one’s with you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
When the world falls around your shoulders
And you’re left holding sorrow and despair
When you think that no one needs you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
I’ll be there every morning
I’ll invade your dreams at night
I’ll come to you on shadows
Of the softest candle light
You won’t have to call long distance
Or go running off to who knows where
So I just close your eyes and wish me with you
Then search your heart you’ll find me there
If time ever loses its meaning
Like some philosophers declare
And you need someone there with you
Search your heart you’ll find me there
When you least expect it
I’ll catch you unaware
When you think I’m gone forever
Search your heart you’ll find me there.
