Lyrics

If I should go before I?m ready
If I am taken by surprise
Keep that fire burning in your heart
And the light that shines in your eyes

If I am walking beside you
And suddenly I?m gone
You should know that I?m not far away
And maybe in the wind you?ll hear this song

Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you again
Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you where the rainbow ends

Sometimes you may think that you can hear me
Or catch a glimpse of someone passing by
It may just be your senses playing tricks on you
Or it may be me beside you when you cry

Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you again
Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you where the rainbow ends

And as the distance grows and days turn into years
Keep hold of those memories
And maybe shed a tear
Look at those old photographs, remember how we were
You know those times will come again
One day they will return

Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you again
Long time lover
Long time friend
I will see you where the rainbow ends
