"Through The Years" lyrics

"Through The Years"

It's a miracle of nature
Just to be alive tonight
Awake in your arms
The world and it's charms
Lit up by candle light
It's a miracle of feeling
To love despite the fear
So please don't forget
I've had no regrets
Since you found me here

Through the years we've been happy
Through the years we've been sad
And sometimes, feeling lucky
Was the only luck we had
But we always found
Some laughter in the tears
Through the years

It's a never-ending wonder
That other arms are cold
When every night
I'm warmed by the light
Of your spindthrift soul
Shining like a beacon
Lit up against the dark
What do people do
When they don't have you
Alive in their heart?

Through the years we've been happy
Through the years we've been sad
And sometimes, feeling lucky
Was the only luck we had
But we always found
Some laughter In the tears
Through the years

What do people do
Who haven't got you
To lighten the tears?
Through the years
Through the years
Through the years
