Dated till each of us runs out of time
Dedicated to you my love
And if I could think of a piece of a rhyme
Dedicated to you my love

And if the way I speak my love seems silly of me
It’s only cause you got me feeling good and happy
And I must say it’s neat my love that it really can be
I reach for love, reach out for love, and you let me

And if I could find me a mountain to climb
Dedicate it to you my love
I’d swim me an ocean if I had a mind
Dedicate it to you my love

And if the way I speak my love seems silly of me
It’s only cause you got me feeling good and happy
And I must say it’s neat my love that it can really be
Reach for love, reach out for love, and you let me

And if I could find me a mountain to climb
Dedicate it to you my love
I’d swim me an ocean if I had a mind
Dedicate it to you my love

Thanks for the feeling
Hope will last with you
Thanks for the time
That I’ve had in the past with you
