All the live-long day and the long, long night
What do I do? Dream about you
Felt this way the first time you came in sight
Suddenly my gloomy old sky turned magically bright
You'll find I'm perfect casting opposite you
You'll find love everlasting
You're the why and wherefore
I was born to care for
All I live for now is to hold you tight
All the live-long day and the long, long night
No chance you're taking chances taking me on
No doubt my lifelong plan says
"You're the why and wherefore
I was born to care for"
All I live for now is to hold you tight
All the live-long day and the long, long night
All the live-long night
All the live-long night
