Album: The Polydor Years 1986–1992

Like the rose that blooms in wintertime
As it reaches up through the snow
The more life keeps apart

The more love will grow.
Like the seed that grows in darkness
As it reaches up to the sun,
I will always reach out for you
'Cos you are the one.
I bless the wings that bring you
Back across the shore.
If I could touch you now, my darling,
And love you just once more,
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand.
I know you'd understand.

As I cross the bridge by the waterfall,
As I make my way by the stars,
There's a shadow walking beside me
Here in my heart.
Like the restless wind in the tree tops,
Like a whispered voice in my ear,
I will always be there for you,
I'll always be here.

I bless the wings that bring you
Back across the shore.
If I could touch you now, my darling,
And love you just once more,
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand.
I know you'd understand.

In a far-off wonderland
That flashes past my eyes,
The kiss of inspiration that was mine,
The dust of many centuries
Has blown across this land
But love will not be scattered like the sand.

Like the sunrise over the mountainside,
Like the bird that has to be free,
There's a part of you that will always be
Part of me.
That the seed that grows in darkness
As it reaches up to the sun,
I will always reach out for you
'Cos you are the one.

I bless the wings that bring you
Back across the shore.
If I could touch you now, my darling,
And love you just once more,
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand.
I know you'd understand.
I know you'd understand.
I know you'd understand.
