Sunlight and Shadow
| Belle de la Tour |

Chorus:
Walk with me in sunlight, and walk with me in shadow The honor of your company I ask you to bestow I want to see you shine like fire, I want to hear you cheer I want to hold your hand in mine through our remaining years The fiercest rain feels warm as dew if you but hold my hand The fiercest gale a gentle breeze if by your side I stand The strength that flows between us when our hands are intertwined Lifts us up to face full on the challenges we find Chorus The body that I wish to hold in sprightly dance of old Reminds me of the statues of the Grecian heroes bold But no statue could match your pace as we sway to a tune The grace that takes my breath away beneath the shining moon Chorus Now beauty of the flesh is fine but like a leaf of spring Does fade away as chill air blows and time does winter bring But beauty that I find in thee is kept not on thy face But deep within your eyes is found a mind I would embrace Chorus The sunlight gathers in your hair to be saved for darker days Your smile and the warmth it brings embodies dappled rays No matter how the wind may howl no matter chill or frost With you around to be my sun the winter's finally lost Chorus |
