Come What May
Ewan McGregor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear? It sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song, and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you
(I love you) until the end (until the end) of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
Oh, come what may
Come what may
I will love you
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
