As Long As I (Can Be With You)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They say there's a light
Through darkness shines
If two hands
Protect that light
Against the change of time
You can have
Your gold and silver
Build your kingdoms high
But it's just once
Of those things baby
That money can't buy
So I don't care
Where we go baby
I don't care what we do
As long as I can be with you
Now I've been lost
And I've been found
Been lifted up
To the gates of heaven
And put back down
I've walked in chains baby
And I've walked free
But I never walk
The way that I do
When you walk with me
So I don't care
Where we go baby
I don't care what we do
As long as I can be with you
Well maybe
I'm just a foolish girl
'Cause I always
Thought the right kiss
Could wash away
Some sins of the world
Wash away those sins baby
And go walkin' free
'Cause that's just how I feel darlin'
When you walk with me
So I don't care where we go baby
I don't care what we do
As long as I can be with you
As long as I can be with you
