Lyrics
The Keeping of what we shareand what is still to share.
Knowing that we care.
I always will be there.
-----
Holding on to what we give.
It's within us to believe
In the things we know
About all that makes us grow.
Believe in the Keeping.
Believe in the Keeping
of the love and things we shared.
The distance apart
A life sometimes apart
Will never break us free
From what we, we need to be.
-----
The Keeping of the special place
That can never be understood
And understanding this
Will be the grace and fullness of our embrace.
Believe in the Keeping.
Believe in the Keeping
of the love and things we shared.
Believe in the Keeping.
Believe in the Keeping
of the love and things we shared.
The Keeping of what we create
Will help us to be.
The Keeping of what we create
Will help us to be.
The Keeping of what we create.
