    LYRICS:
    Open up your eyes, then you'll realize here I stand
    With my everlasting love.
    Need you by my side, girl you'll be my bride.
    You'll never be denied everlasting love.
    From the very start, open up your heart,
    Be a lasting part of everlasting love.
    Ooh, ooh.-- Real love will last forever
    Hearts go astray, leaving hurt when they go.
    I went away just when you needed me so. Oh yeah
    Filled with regret I come back beggin' you,
    Forgive, forget. Where's the love we once knew?
    Open up your eyes, then you'll realize here I stand
    With my everlasting love.
    Need you by my side, girl you'll be my bride.
    You'll never be denied everlasting love.
    From the very start, open up your heart,
    Be a lasting part of everlasting love.
    Real love will last forever.
    Ooh, ooh. Yeah, yeah
    Where life's river flows, no one really knows
    'til someone's there to show the way to lasting love.
    Like the sun that shines, endlessly it shines,
    You always will be mine. It's eternal love.
    When other loves are gone, ours will still be strong,
    We have our very own everlasting love.
    Real love will last forever.
    Open up your eyes, then you'll realize here I stand
    With my everlasting love.
    Need you by my side, girl you'll be my bride.
    You'll never be denied everlasting love.
    From the very start, open up your heart,
    Be a lasting part of everlasting love.
    Real love will last forever.

      I've never liked the "til death do us part" segment of the marriage. The kind of love you and your husband had didn't die with him, and you never really parted with him. After almost fifty years, he's a part of you. One that's going to last forever.
      Everlasting Love. Like the song says.

Every time it would come on the radio I would 100% enjoy listening to it. Now I have this video that I can enjoy anytime I want. I've watched on CZcams different interpretations from various artists, famous and not so famous, and my very favorite is Carl Carlton. Watching him perform this song just confirms it for me!!

The song was one of several disco tunes that was part of a 'disco hits' collection LP. Great song, one I've not forgotten, and an interesting mix of pop, rock and disco. It makes me pine a little bit for the distant past.
