Overwhelmingly Vast( Mirrored Refrain)

Love takes time to grow ever eternal
They say love is blind, though I do not think so.
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,
Building of new friendships and more to know,

Friends may stay friends or become lovers.
Lovers may forever bond or drift back to past
Building of new friendships and more to know,
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,

Two may depart but stay so close at hand.
Both, either or, may decide to let it go
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,
Building of new friendships and more to know,

Future endeavors make it hard, not to concede.
That will always be memories that last.
Building of new friendships and more to know,
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,

When children are formed by the bond between two,
A link formed forever in their beautiful glow.
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,
Building of new friendships and more to know,

Whether successful or not, a true mystery is love,
Each of us continues to fall as love spells are cast.
Building of new friendships and more to know,
The bond is breathless and overwhelmingly vast,
