More than the greatest love the
world has known,
This is the love I give to you
alone,
More than the simple words I try
to say,
I only live to love you more
each day.
More than you'll ever know, my
arms long to hold you so,
My life will be in your keeping,
waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping,
Longer than always is a long
long time, but far beyond forever you're gonna be mine.
I know I've never lived before
and my heart is very sure,
No one else could love you more.
(musical interlude)
More than you'll ever know , my
arms they long to hold you so,
My life will be in your keeping,
waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping,
Longer than always is a long
long time, but far beyond forever you'll be mine,
I know that I've never lived
before and my heart is very sure,
No one else could love you more,
no one else could love you more.
