I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You

To the tune of I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You from the movie, Mask of Zorro; music by James Horner and lyrics by Will Jennings.

New Lyrics Original Lyrics
Lord, you are the light
Of my day and of my night.
To you, Lord, I sing
And my praises do I bring
No matter what the day may hold
I promise, Lord, my love won't turn cold.
Moon so bright, night so fine
Keep your heart here with mine
Life’s a dream we are dreaming
Race the moon, catch the wind
Ride the night to the end
Seize the day, stand up for the light
Ever since the day
When I saw I'd run away
I'd turned from all that's true
And Satan's wiles I pursued
I saw his lie for what it was
Compared your love, born above

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do

Heroes rise, heroes fall
Rise again, win it all
In your heart, can’t you feel the glory?

Your love changed my heart
You gave my life a brand new start
When you cleaned my slate
Filled my heart with love, not hate
I turned around from wrong to right
Opened my eyes from dark to light

Through our joy, through our pain
We can move worlds again
Take my hand, dance the dance with me

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my lifetime loving you

Though we know we will never come again
Where there is love, life begins
Over and over again

Save the night, save the day
Save the love, come what may
Love is worth everything we pay

What now I can do
To show my love for you is true?
I give you all my wealth, 
All my treasures and my health
Whatever, Lord, comes my way
I promise, Lord, to obey.
