If I were a showman, if I could get this one thing right
Just once I'd like to take you from your fragile world
And bring you here to me tonight

But I don't do magic
I don't have witchcraft and words you've never heard
Save this crazy dream, you seem just like a ship  
Lost in a river

Let me be your anchor 
Tossed and bitter
Lately all my dreams are coming true
If I can be there holding you

Take heart sweet Diana, icicles are melting the days are getting longer
And you know it's time to awaken from this slumber
Someone's dreaming the same dream as you

And if, if I have found you
If you're the one who wished on that same star
Don't shield your heart just let this love protect you
And let me hold you

Come into my arms
I never told you
Till I met you loneliness was fine
You'll have to trust your heart sometime

I know you're hurt baby I know you're scared 
Darling I know it's hard cause I've been there myself
I'll make you laugh if you'll just take my hand
Baby if you can just believe in me

It soon will be morning, the sun's completed another lonely journey into where
Somewhere someone else's day is over
And ours is just starting now

So come, come climb this ladder,
Come share the secrets of this new thing that I've learned
Because you know our days are rungs upon a ladder
We can build on 

Minute after minute
There are millions 
Days become your life each moment's new
I want to spend this life with you

I know you're hurt baby I know you're scared 
Darling I know it's hard cause I've been there myself
I'll make you laugh if you'll just take my hand
Baby if you can just believe in me
