Can Love Be Far Behind

Love came along just like a song That never had been sung. A friendship grew and soon we knew Our life had just begun. The hope you brought was what I’d sought To ease my troubled mind. You came to me with a touch so kind – Can love be far behind? When two hearts beat to a rhythm so sweet, Can love be far behind? When arms reach out to a mind in doubt, Can love be far behind? Can love be far behind For two hearts so inclined? When two hearts seek eternity, Can love be far behind? At first, I thought you’d only be The friend I needed so. But soon we found the quiet sounds That only lovers know. We should have been just simply friends But, life was much too kind. When you and I exchange a sigh Can love be far behind? When two hearts beat to a rhythm so sweet, Can love be far behind? When arms reach out to a mind in doubt, Can love be far behind? Can love be far behind For two hearts so inclined? When two hearts seek eternity, Can love be far behind?
