As Dreams Go By Lyrics - Bette Of Roses - Bette Midler

When the white bird flies 

From your heart to mine 

I surrender every part of me 

To the tenderness 

Could it be the wine? 

In your eyes stars shine 

And I'm feeling like a child again 

Oh, it's taken me a little time 

To find words to say 

Stay, make this forever 

Lay love in my life 

Come what may 

Cherish each moment of love 

As dreams go by 

If the first glow fades 

From the love we've made 

I will hold you closer in the night 

(Hold you closer in the night) 

Under heart and key 

When there are hills to climb 

And your world won't rhyme 

I will fight until I get it right 

(Fight until I get it right) 

'Cause your part of me, the heart of me 

If only you'll stay 

Stay, make this forever 

And lay love in my life 

Come what may 

Cherish each moment of love 

As dreams go by 

The trees and the towers are burnin' 

Fear walks on the sea 

My soul in the wasteland is yearnin' 

What does tomorrow hold for me? 

Oh, no 

What can I say? 

(Hoo) 

Just that I need you 

With you here by my side 

(Hoo) 

We can turn even the desert evergreen 

(Hoo) 

As dreams go by 

Oh, won't you stay? 

Make this forever 

And lay love in my life 

Come what may 

Cherish each moment of love 

As dreams go by 

Stay, make this forever 

Lay love in my life 

Come what may 

Cherish each moment of love 

(As dreams) 

As dreams go by
