Truly Madly Deeply

As originally performed by Australian pop duo Savage Garden

Named Top Adult Contemporary song of the year in 1998
A classic first dance song for weddings


I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy,
I'll be your hope I'll be your love be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do

I will be strong I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on
A new beginning, a reason for living, a deeper meaning yeah

I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea,
I want to lay like this forever, until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish to send it to heaven then make you want to cry,
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort, and protection of
The highest powers, in lonely hours, the tears devour you

I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea,
I want to lay like this forever, until the sky falls down on me

Oh can you see it baby, you don't have to close your eyes,
It's standing right before you,
All that you need will surely come.

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy,
I'll be your hope I'll be your love be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do

I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea,
I want to lay/live like this forever, until the sky falls down on me
