It's been so long now since we first met
But the time and place I will never forget
Darling, never
Trough good and bad we stood the tested time
You say I'm yours and darling you're still mine
Forever
So smile for me
'Cos it's there for all to see
After all this time
Through the rain and tears
After all this time
After all these years
I'm only loving you again
And I'll keep holding on girl I won't let go
I want you near me where ever I go
Please say, forever
And I give thanks for what you've given me
And in my heart girl there'll always be
A light
That shines through the darkest night
After all this time
Through the rain and tears
After all this time
After all these years
I'm only loving you again
So smile for me
'Cos it's there for all to see
After all this time
Through the rain and tears
After all this time
After all these years
I'm only loving you again
Through the rain and tears
till the sun dries up the sea
till the rivers they run dry
I'm gonna be loving you again
