WHEN

V-1 WHEN we meet, will the sparks fly?

When I look at your face,
Will I see the reflection of my love
From deep within your eyes?

Bridge: Will time stand still, will the mountains roar?

Will the stars in heaven shine brighter than before?
Will the birds cease their singing,
To hear the song of our heartbeats ringing?

V-2 WHEN we embrace like never before,

Will it be as though we’ve always been?
Will the joy of our lives as we’ve awaited this day,
Burst forth in rapture, causing even the heavens to sway?

Bridge: Will time stand still, will the mountains roar?

Will the stars in heaven shine brighter than before?
Will the birds cease their singing,
To hear the song of our heartbeats ringing?

V-3 WHEN that day comes and we stand face to face,

Will we reach out, then touch –
Closing all distance, time and space,
As what was prepared so long ago, now takes its rightful
place?

Bridge: Will time stand still, will the mountains roar?

Will the stars in heaven shine brighter than before?
Will the birds cease their singing,
To hear the song of our heartbeats ringing?
