There is a love There is a life that we share Hand in glove They won't separate us Climb once again Cast off your sorrows The long night will end Dance on the morning dew Casting a line to you Safe from a slinging arrow Think of the love we knew How it goes on Five days of love There is a scent in the air Above & beyond The one who named us Climb once again Cast off your sorrows The long night will end Won't get the best of you Casting a line to you Love is a winning arrow Fire it straight and true to wherever you are Casting a line to you Love is a winning arrow
