Lyrics

  1. On this life of mine, no summer sun had ever shone
    Till within your smile, I found a light I’d never known
    To this heart of mine, no other love had brought desire
    Till I found a flame that set my heart and soul a-fire

Chorus
In your eyes I found the tender beams
Of a light I longed for in my dreams
With love’s fire I’m burning since you came
And brought me the Eternal Flame

  1. All the world of winter turned to spring the day you came
    All the days of darkness disappeared within the flame
    Of the light of love that shone from out your eyes to mine
    Through the clouds of doubt your heart of gold will always shine
