My Heart Will Go On (Celine Dion) - Soundtrack of

Titanic:
“Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance

And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on [...]”
