Sarah Brightman - The last words you said

Somewhere in time I know,
Darling you'll come back to me.
Roses will bloom again,
But Spring feels like eternity.
In your kiss it wasn't goodbye.
You are still the reason why.

I can hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
"Love me now forever,"
Were the last words you said to me.

And when the morning comes,
My hands still reach out for you.
Some things remain the same,
There is nothing I can do.
I can barely get through the day
Ever since you went away.

I can hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
"Love me now forever,"
Were your last words to me ...

Heaven help us cross this endless sea
With starlight above to guide you to me.
Waves crashing on distant shores,
They're calling our names forever more.

And I still hear you whispering in the silence of my room,
My heart still surrenders like the sun to the moon.
I can barely stand this aching, burning endlessly.
"Love me now forever,"
Were the last words you said to me.

Music: Richard Marx
Lyrics: Janey Clewer
The song is a duet with Richard Marx, in the sense that he sings several lines of the lyrics along with Sarah on the background, as a kind of echo.

From: Eden -- USA/Canadian version (1999)
and The very best of 1990-2000 (2001).

Source of the lyrics: thanks to G Choy, who wrote down the lyrics for me, and thanks to John Barker, G. Choy and Jina Lee for corrections.
I only have the European version of Eden; I first heard from Tony of this extra song on the USA/Canadian version. Thanks to Tim and Andrea for the info on the authors.

Thanks to Sassy Molassee and Becky Wilson I have been able to hear the song now too, and I have to say: it is really a great song! It should have been included on the European Eden too, I think.
