lyrics version 1
I was alone and without love
Hope was fading fast
Slipping right on past
Then by some grand design
She came along and heard my song
And sang the harmony
She was right on key
And she was right on time
And now I'm hers, she is mine
We sing together now
She knows the words somehow
And I love her true
And we sing the tune
Love is a song from heaven
She is the love that I've been given
I was alone, I was unsure
She reached out to me
And she helped me see
That I still had a chance
I still had a chance
To open up, to come alive
And to love again
It was only then
That I joined in the dance
Oh ho
And I am hers, she is mine
We sing together now
She knows the words somehow
And I love her true
And we sing the tune
Thank you [Spoken]

She knows the words somehow
And I love her true
And we sing the tune
Love is a song from heaven
She is the love that I've been given
I was alone, I was unsure
She reached out to me
And she helped me see
That I still had a chance
I still had a chance
To open up, to come alive
And to love again
It was only then
That I joined in the dance
Oh ho
And I am hers, she is mine
We sing together now
She knows the words somehow
And I love her true
And we sing the tune
Thank you [Spoken]
