Not the jewels
Of a thousand kings
Not the waves

Of the mighty sea
Not the powers that be
In the heavens or in hell

Could ever separate me
From your love


When you ask me to be near you
And you say, "Come, take my hand"
I say, "Be near me"

"Be near me"

There is nowhere else I'd rather stay

Than in your arms
There is nowhere else I want to be
But in your arms


Not the skies
Or the stars above

Not the treasure
Of a thousand loves
Not palaces of gold

Or castles by the sea
Could ever separate me
From your love
