There comes a certain point in life
When things will pass away
The shooting stars that you were chasing
After were too quick for you and your
Friends found other things that they wanted to do
So you went to work
And emitted love for your kids in golden beams
And ovations when they tackled all their dreams
But then the night comes down
And you're the only one around
It seems

♪
And the clock goes
♪
And then she arrives
She arrives, oh, she arrives with water-flowing hair
And joy breaks through her pain
And through yours
And now you just want to watch over her
And offer her your protection
And make a big fuss over her
And give her your true love
♪
War breaks out so frequently in predicaments like these
The horns of our dilemma blow a bellicose disease
But under the bullets and the bombs
Our shoots of green reach out and intertwine
Our roots embrace until they're yours and mine
And now I just want to watch over you
And offer you my protection
And make a big fuss over you
And give you my true love
Yeah
My true love
My true love
Yeah
♪
And now I just want to watch over you
And offer you my protection
And make a big fuss over you
And give you my true love
