I love you more than ever,
more than time and more than love,
I love you more than money
and more than the stars above,
Love you more than madness,
more than waves upon the sea,
Love you more than life itself,
you mean that much to me.
Ever since you walked right in,
the circle’s been complete,
I’ve said goodbye to haunted rooms
and faces in the street,
To the courtyard of the jester
which is hidden from the sun,
I love you more than ever
and I haven’t yet begun.
You breathed on me
and made my life a richer one to live,
When I was deep in poverty
you taught me how to give,
Dried the tears up from my dreams
and pulled me from the hole,
Quenched my thirst
and satisfied the burning in my soul.
You gave me babies one, two, three,
what is more, you saved my life,
Eye for eye and tooth for tooth,
your love cuts like a knife,
My thoughts of you don’t ever rest,
they’d kill me if I lie,
I’d sacrifice the world for you
and watch my senses die.
The tune that is yours and mine
to play upon this earth,
We’ll play it out the best we know,
whatever it is worth,
What’s lost is lost, we can’t regain
what went down in the flood,
But happiness to me is you
and I love you more than blood.
It’s never been my duty
to remake the world at large,
Nor is it my intention
to sound a battle charge,
‘Cause I love you more
than all of that with a love that doesn’t bend,
And if there is eternity
I’d love you there again.
Oh, can’t you see that you were born
to stand by my side
And I was born to be with you,
you were born to be my bride,
You’re the other half of what I am,
you’re the missing piece
And I love you more than ever
with that love that doesn’t cease.
You turn the tide on me each day
and teach my eyes to see,
Just bein’ next to you
is a natural thing for me
And I could never let you go,
no matter what goes on,
‘Cause I love you more than ever now
that the past is gone.
