Since I saw you I have wondered,
Do you ever think of me,
As someone who could hold you tight,
On those long and lonely nights?
Could it be me who sets you free?

Free to feel the sky above you.
Free to leave the earth below.
We could make a symphony of tears,
And hope that heaven hears.
Somewhere in that sky tonight,
Is someone who could make it right.

Heaven knows how much I want you.
Heaven knows how much I care.
We could own this sky,
And every star that
Lights your eyes up there.
If only heaven dared.

Do you still believe in magic,
Like the magic we once knew,
When even birds would stop their flight,
Just to taste the light
That we once drew?
Is it still true?

If I could I'd have you near me.
If I only knew the words.
I would call on every shining star,
To witness where you are,

Into my waiting arms again.

Heaven knows how much I want you.
Heaven knows how much I care.
We could own this sky,
And every star that
Lights your eyes up there.
If only heaven dared.

Dream on until we find our way.
You've got to hold your heart.
I promise we will meet again,
One bright and shining day.

Heaven knows how much I want you.
Heaven knows how much I care.
We could own this sky,
And every star that
Lights your eyes up there.
If only heaven dared.
