Love Transcends All
Love transcends all

When we were first separated
It felt like a shot to the heart
Feeling like I wouldn't make it
The world becoming grey and dark
People thought I was fine
No one looked past my smile
Into the soul deep sadness
Behind my hazel eyes
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the light
Oh, love transcends all miles
Oh, bring me back my smile
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the miles
Oh, love transcends all borders
Oh, bring me back my daughter
Across the world in Africa
Where lions are kings and rulers
Where zebras stripe across the veld
And springbok jump through hoops
Where the sun beats down
Hot and ceaseless every day
I'm on a cool, rainbow island
Where green hills lead me away
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the light
Oh, love transcends all miles
Oh, bring me back my smile
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the miles
Oh, love transcends all borders
Oh, bring me back my daughter
Worlds apart, worlds apart
Only sharing the same skies
Where the stars see everything
And the angels mourn our lives
Universe, Universe
Let's go into a new timezone
Where we are always together
Beyond dreams and hope
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the light
Oh, love transcends all miles
Oh, bring me back my smile
Oh, under starry skies
Oh, can we share the miles
Oh, love transcends all borders
Oh, bring me back my daughter
