Our love started
so innocent and sweet
we just talked

The more we talked
the more I knew-
I had to be with you
With every breath and every beat

My heart grew fonder-
Fonder of you
How could one woman
Love me like you?

How can I ever get over you?
Our love so intense
Would make my brown eyes blue

From the rising sun
To its setting
You give me light.
You give me life.

Take that away
my life, my light
I have nothing left
But death and no light

Shall I raise from the grave
Hollow and fright
looking for love in darkness and night
In finding you, your love will save
