Boyzone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A smile could ever mean this much
Stranded by your softest touch
You're too beautiful
Oh my love, I'm sure
Every time I see your face
It takes me to a simple place
There's no way left, I need to go
And nothing else I need to know
There's no one I would rather be
Now you're with me
There's nothing lost that I will miss
No one before or after this
This moment will forever be
The moment when I knew
Heaven is wherever I am lying safe with you
(My love)
All my life,
Only in my wildest dreams
I have dreamed you here with me
You make me so complete
There's no way left, I need to go
And nothing else I need to know
There's no one I would rather be
Now you're with me
There's nothing lost that I will miss
No one before or after this
This moment will forever be
The moment when I knew
Heaven is wherever I am lying safe with you
Heaven is wherever I am lying safe and warm with you
