Lyrics

(Spoken)
You know I've always been interested in your happiness. More so now, than ever!
If you really mean that, and want to make me happy, would you accept me?
Of course I accept you!

After all the twists and turns (And there have been so many)
For you, my love has always burned (I feel the same)
Who would have thought that our love could be
Measured in years, I've waited patiently
To have you in front of me
Dear Kimberly (Oh, Samuel)

It's been a long road, tough climb
Always working to make a career mine
When we're together, it doesn't take long
Those feelings come through, this is where I belong

Yes, when I'm with you, I hear dinner bells
Now kiss me and hold me, dear Samuel
It's been you and I all along
We've been hungry for love, and too smart, and too strong
But we're old enough to know
That one day, time won't let us go
Let's make all the lonely tears turn into wonderful years
Wonderful years

I didn't want to lose my good friend
So I stayed in the place where I knew I fit in
Knowing that sometimes you could be extreme
Understanding that it was your routine
We have our memories
Dear Kimberly

Let's be together forever
From now on, we'll make life even better
To think you'd settle for that carty (you mean, Cartier?)
I'm the one who's gonna make you happy

And I'll kiss you goodnight before we sleep
Each day, I will say that it's Samuel I'll keep
It's been you and I all along
We've been hungry for love, and too smart, and too strong
But we're old enough to know
That one day, time won't let us go
Let's make all the lonely tears turn into wonderful years
Wonderful years

I stayed away from your touch
Life begins now, and it's our place
Pretending I didn't need you as much
That all this time did not go to waste

You know me better than anyone else
We could have been together 'til now
It's easy to talk when I talk of myself
It's funny how things turn out, turn out somehow

It's been you and I all along
We've been hungry for love, and too smart, and too strong
But we're old enough to know
That one day, time won't let us go
Let's make all the lonely tears turn into wonderful years
Wonderful years

We're old enough to know
That time one day, will let us go
Let's make all the lonely tears turn into
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful years
