Charles
IT HAPPENED IN A MOMENT
JUST AS IF I'D ALWAYS KNOWN IT
WHEN YOU FELL ASLEEP THAT FIRST NIGHT
I FELT MY HEART WOULD BURST RIGHT ON OUT OF MY
BODY I NEEDED YOU NEAR ME
I SAW IT ALL SO CLEARLY
I KNEW I'D BE IN LOVE WITH YOU FOREVER
STOP THE WORLD
STOP IT NOW
IT'S NOT FAIR AND I STILL NEED YOU SO
CAUSE I FEEL LIKE I'VE LOVED YOU FOREVER AND NO TIME AT ALL
I'M NOT READY TO LET YOU GO
Hope
IT DIDN'T HAPPEN IN A MOMENT
I DIDN'T SUDDENLY JUST KNOW IT
IT KINDA SNUCK UP ON ME SLOWLY
IT WAS THE LITTLE THINGS THAT SHOWED ME
AND NOW I NEVER COULD FORGET YOU
SOMEHOW {edit} it feels LIKE I JUST MET YOU AN HOUR AGO AND THEN
SOMETIMES {edit} it feels LIKE I'VE LOVED YOU FOREVER MY SWEET LOVE
Charles
BUT IT ISN'T FOREVER, IT CAN'T BE FOREVER
AND THAT'S THE CRUELEST PART
'CAUSE I KNOW THAT I COULD LIVE, I WILL LIVE WITHOUT YOU
SURVIVE THIS BROKEN HEART
AND IT'S NOT BECAUSE LOVE IS SO WONDERFUL MAGICAL OR EVEN
TERRIBLY STRONG
IT'S THAT LOVE IS SO FRAGILE, SO WEAK EVEN WHEN IT CAN LAST
YOUR WHOLE LIFE LONG
I WILL LAUGH WITHOUT YOU
CARRY ON WITHOUT YOU
SIT IN MY ROCKING CHAIR WATCH GRANDKIDS PLAY ON THE LAWN
WITHOUT YOU
Hope
I'M JUST SO GLAD IT WAS YOU
LOOK AT WHAT I GOT TO DO
I GOT TO SPEND THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE
FOR BETTER, FOR WORSE, AS YOUR FRIEND, AS YOUR WIFE
AND THAT'S WHAT BASHERT IS, THAT'S THE RED STRING
IT'S THE JOURNEY TOGETHER DESPITE EVERYTHING
AND EACH LITTLE MOMENT LINED UP IN MY SOUL
TOGETHER ADD UP TO A LOVE THAT MADE ME WHOLE
MAYBE NOT ALWAYS WHITE HOT
BUT A LOVE THAT COULD KEEP ME WARM
THE CONSTANT AMID ALL THE CHANGE
THE ANCHOR, THE BEACON, THE EYE OF THE STORM
THE ONE I CAN COUNT ON WHEREVER WE ARE
AND KNOW
YOU ARE MY LOVE

Charles
IT HAPPENED IN
A MOMENT
JUST AS IF I'D
ALWAYS KNOWN IT
WHEN YOU FELL
ASLEEP THAT
FIRST NIGHT
I FELT MY HEART
WOULD BURST
RIGHT ON OUT OF
MY
BODY I NEEDED
YOU NEAR ME
I SAW IT ALL SO
CLEARLY
I KNEW I'D BE
IN LOVE WITH
YOU FOREVER

Hope
IT DIDN'T HAPPEN
IN A MOMENT
I DIDN'T
SUDDENLY JUST
KNOW IT
IT KINDA SNUCK
UP ON ME SLOWLY
IT WAS THE
LITTLE THINGS
THAT SHOWED ME
AND NOW I NEVER
COULD FORGET YOU
SOMEHOW {edit} it feels
LIKE I JUST MET
YOU AN HOUR AGO
AND THEN
SOMETIMES {edit} it feels
LIKE I'VE LOVED
YOU FOREVER MY
SWEET LOVE

Charles
STOP THE WORLD
STOP IT NOW
IT’S NOT FAIR
AND I STILL
NEED YOU SO
‘CAUSE

Hope
OH CHARLES
OH MY DARLING

Charles
I FEEL LIKE I’VE LOVED YOU FOREVER AND NO TIME
AT ALL

Charles
I’M NOT READY
TO
I’M NOT READY
TO LET YOU GO
AND IT KILLS ME
TO LET
YOU
GO
BUT I LET
YOU
GO.

Hope
YOU CAN LET ME
GO
YOU CAN
LET
ME
GO
LET
ME
GO.
