When I See Your Face Again Lyrics:
When I see your face again,
When I look into your eyes,
In that very time and place
I must stop to realize
That your love for me has grown
From the love that you have shown;
And my love for you will never slip away; please let me stay.
And I will love you forever and ever;
And I will hold you close and stay right by your side.
And I could only let you go, if, my love, you could not show
All the ways you love me in your gentle - way; please let me stay.
When you see my face once more,
Once again, just like before;
I can only hope you'll see part of you that's part of me.
For my love to you I give just as long as we both live;
And I hope your love for me will never stray while I'm away.
And I will love you forever and ever;
And I will hold you close and stay right by your side.
And I could only let you go, if, my love, you could not show
All the ways you love me in your gentle - way; please let me stay.
