As Dreams Go By - Bette Midler

When the white bird flies

From your heart to mine

I surrender every part of me

To the tenderness

Could it be the wine

In your eyes stars shine

And I’m feeling like a child again

Oh, it’s taken me a little time

To find words to say

Stay

Make this forever

And lay love in my life

Come what may

Cherish each moment of love

As dreams go by

If the first glow fades

From the love we’ve made

I will hold you closer

In the night

Under heart and key

When there are hills to climb

And your world won’t rhyme

I will fight until I get it right

'Cause you’re part of me

The heart of me

Only if you’ll stay

Stay

Make this forever

And lay love in my life

Come what may

Cherish each moment of love

As dreams go by

The trees and the towers are burning

Fear walks on the sea

My soul in the wasteland is yearning

What does tomorrow hold for me

What can I say

Just that I need you

With you here by my side

We can turn even the desert

Evergreen, as dreams go by
