Lyrics
Our love is unconditional, we knew it from the start
I see it in your eyes, you can feel it from my heart
From here on after let’s stay the way we are right now
And share all the love and laughter that a lifetime will allow
I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I’ve got to give to make all your dreams come true
In all the world you’ll never find a love as true as mine
You will always be the miracle that makes my life complete
And as long as there’s a breath in me
I’ll make yours just as sweet
As we look into the future, it’s as far as we can see
So let’s make each tomorrow be the best that it can be
I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I’ve got to give to make all your dreams come true
In all the world you’ll never find, a love as true as mine
And if along the way we find a day it starts to storm
You’ve got the promise of my love to keep you warm
In all the world you’ll never find, a love as true as mine
A love as true as mine
