Oh, don't you know
that you hold my soul.
that every beat of your heart
is a beat of mine.
And every breath you take
is a breath that fills my soul.
Oh, you are everything
in this world to me.
And oh, how you have grown
in my heart and soul.
Every memory of you
has taken on the color and hue
of love in my soul.
Your every word and movement
and warm embrace
had become a treasure in my heart
that is beyond
all the treasure that this base earth
could ever hold.
You are a dream come alive
taken solid form
through some mystic force
as though through the magic
of some god or angel
or some force I cannot understand.
When I first saw your lovely frame
it was a though
a light shown from heaven
a glorious golden light
upon your lovely angelic form
I knew in that moment
that I must have your love
or I shall die!
For without you
I cannot bear this loveless life
that would be my lot
in a world where love is a base thing
and such a small word.
And people jeer
and say, " Oh, fool!
Did you think you could
really win her love!
Oh, how you are
but dirt and stone
and no one like her
could ever love you!"
Oh, no living creature
has ever gazed
upon a thing even of half the beauty
of you my dear lovely angel.
And oh, with the passing of time
my love for you
has only grown grown ever deeper still.
till it has outgrown
my wildest imagination.
Oh, I had never thought such a love was possible
as the love I hold for you.
You are the life and blood of my soul
and I can never rest
till I give all in my love for you.
Oh, I know the meaning of life
is in my loving you.
And that I was born for but one thing only
and that is to give all my love to you.
To live with the eternal hope in my soul
to forever hold you in my arms
as long as my soul shall ever be.
Oh, I would bleed dry this mortal coil
and suffer a world
full of pain and torment
just to come and be by your side.
Oh, your heart is a holy temple
and I shall forever worship at its gates.
At the door to your heart
I shall ever beg that in your mercy
that you will give your everlasting love
it me a wretched as I am
for I can find no rest
in my love for you
but I forever live in your arms.
for I know that
you are the other half of my soul
and without you I shall never be whole.
For I am yours
For I am yours because My heart
has told me so.
And through whatever comes
and through whatever goes
my love for you
shall always remain
till the universe passes away
and the stars die one by one
and then we shall ever love
far into that great unknown.

Oh, how I have walked this earth
for many a day
searched and searched
in all the corners of this world
for a lovers heart that only beats for me.
And in all my days
that I have ever walked upon the earth
love was not to be found
and my heart sang its sad song.
Oh, its mournful cry!
Oh, I can hear it now within my breast!
Oh, its was as if love hid its face for me
as though when at last I found her
I would trample her underfoot
and show an icy heart
and a loveless face.
Oh, I felt as though my heart
was a house of death
that was the home
of ever low and vile disease.
Oh, the pain the grew within my heart
as I search and found love in no ones face
and I knew that all hope was lost.
And I mourned as that thought
sunk deep within my soul.
Oh, how my hope was gone
that love would never shine
into my soul.
And I wondered like some hopeless and aimless cloud
with my soul all awash
in its sea of sad thoughts.
When as if a bolt of lightening
as though it were flung
from the highest heaven
from Zeus's very throne!
and tore its way into my lonely mortal coil.
For in the very moment of time
the light of your lovely form
shined into my eyes.
And from that time
you have lived like an immortal goddess
within my heart.
Oh, you are in every breath I take
and with every beat of my heart
it beats for you.
and in all the infinite days
that I walk this earth
making my way through this dark world
my path is forever lit
by the ever shining light of your love.
And all my memories  
of you my dear love
ever flood my soul.
Oh, when I awake in the stillness
of some midnight hour
you are there
as you memory fills mind
and works its way deep into my soul.
And all my love
and all my longing
and all my struggles to make you my one
though what ever the pain
and what ever the cost
seem as only a fleeting moment
in a sea of eternity
when I count the love
that ever flows from your heart
and the length of forever within your arms.

Oh, you are the world and everything in it
all the things I have ever dreamed of
or ever shall.
Oh, you are all that I live for
and all of the universe and everything in it
rests within your soul.
Within you is all the things that I have ever loved
and all that I shall ever love.
All of this I find within you!
and if all the worth of all the world
did rest upon a scale
as massive and as long and wide
as though it reached to the stars
and with you upon that scale
it could never outweigh
one tiny cell beneath the nail
upon your little finger.
and all the worth of all the souls
of all who have ever lived
in this wide starry universe
could never be greater
than all the worth
that my heart places upon you.
Oh, my heart is bound to you
as with a cord of unbreakable steel
forged by God in his eternal domain,
that all the powers of this fallen world
can never destroy.
And as the cord stretches into eternity
and all the infinity of space
so my love stretches into far infinity
and fills my mind to overflowing.
Oh, overflowing it seems
the bony wall of the house of my mind
and I am filled with an infinity
of memories and thoughts
of my love for you
and oh how it seems that I am awash
in an ocean of dreams.
Oh, such beautiful dreams of you!
And oh how the music of your soul
eternally floods my heart
with such a longing
that it seems all the force
of this endless universe lived within it.
Oh, how it has overwhelmed my mortal coil
and it seems that I have left
it far behind and all the world in which it lives.
And I no longer wish to be a child of earth
but live in your loving arms
for all of infinite eternity.
Oh, this overpowering love
that ever lives and breaths in my heart
how can any mortal or immortal tongue
express all the love I hold for you.
Can you hold this infinity in the palm of your hand?
Can you measure it and say  this far is my love and no more?
Oh, the heart is a mystic *****
and an ocean lives within it
of my love I hold for you.
Oh, my heart has but one thought
" I love you.  I love you!   Oh, how I love you!!."
Oh, how you have stolen all of my reason
and now I think only as a mad man.
Oh, for me nothing else matters
but you my angel
my dear love!!
And my heart is forever bound to you
bound to you with this unbreakable cord
till the end of time.

Oh, I want to die
for I am filled with grief for your love.
Oh, I sorrow for you
and I drown my life in a lake of tears
when I imagine that your heart is cold
and you are as distant from me
as the stars that burn in the deep black of night.
Oh, to be with you is heaven
the highest of all my dreams and wishes.
And oh how you make my heart sing
to the end of forever.
For you are the life flowing within me
all  my hopes and wishes come true
within your warm flesh and loving arms.
Your love is in my blood
and the deepest hell
that I can know
is to be without you.
Oh, you are the angel
living in  my heart
that fill my mind with a world of dreams.
Oh, worlds within worlds
full of my ****** dreams
of an angel by far more lovely
than the sirens who lived in mythic time.
And your song penetrates to the heart of my soul
lays it bear and draws it by the mystic of your song
and your angelic frame
and makes my heart to say
" I must have your love
or I shall die!."
Other loves
have all proved false
and left me oh so cold.
As though I would die
in some icy hell.
And so how I was left so forlorn
and I have died a little everyday
thinking and thinking
of all the love I have lost.
But that was before your time
all before the time you dawned within my heart.
Oh, your saving love
has brought me back to life
resurrected me from a world of shadows
from a grave in which I lived.
A grave so deep it seemed
that no living soul
could ever again
reach my suffering heart
in which I seemed to have
passed a painful eternity.
Oh, I would ever want to die
if your love
were ever taken from me
and I am left
with a cold wind to blow
across my naked and fragile body
and freezes in a tomb of ice
my heart and soul.
And I am left with all the ocean of pain
that is living in my soul.
Oh, for I know
that I love you.
And that I love you to madness!
A madness that shall last till the end of time.
And it the end of time
your song shall echo in my mind
and feed all the love that lives
in this heart of mine.
Oh, can't you see
that my life is a love song
written to you my dear love
upon pages of joy and woe and pain.

Oh, this world
with all its promises
how it ever tries my soul and causes such pain!
"If you have all the wealth
that your life can hold
you shall be king of all
and all the world and all its worth
shall worship at your feet.
and all that shines
and all that glitters shall be yours
and all the ladies fair
shall pledge their love to you.
But oh woe to the man
who has no gold in his hand,
his life is only a curse
and cursed shall be he all the days of his life.
And all the world shall never know his name.
And everyone with gold
all laid up in their store
shall drive him from their door.
And with that it is known
that earth is the devil's true home.
For with gold and kingdoms
and all the worlds riches
he did tempt the only son.
' For if you are the only son
then make these stones bread.'
' For why should you die
when all the sons of dust
only wish all that I can give.
And with an empty belly
their love soon flies away.
And all their hearts are then
as cold as a stone.' "
But oh how I know
that the price of love so true
has never been measured
in silver and gold.
And the name of the man
that had been written with all the riches of the world
is but a name written in smoke.
For soon he is dead and forgotten
and never again shall his name be known
and all his memory forever sleeps
in a forgotten  grave
when all is done and said.
And all the hearts of all his false loves
are as cold and heavy
as a granite stone
and only cold ***** ashes
are left to melt innocent white snow.
But I know the treasure I seek
was never dug from a stone.
This heart within me
how it glows like an inner sun.
For my soul and my heart
in its deepest inner reaches
is forever bound to you
with an everlasting bond
that is stronger by far
that any bond of paper and ink
and any law ever formed by man.
And all the bars and all the steel
can never take my love form you.
and all the price I know
that I must pay
to buy the love
that beats in your scarlet heart
is a pain that no mortal man
can ever know
for all the pain in me
you ever sow
that makes my heart
like a withered and dying rose.
But you have all the love
that my soul and heart can give.
For you I shall bear it all
to pay with the coin of my heart
and all my pain and woe
to win your heart
the heart of my lady so fair
and my heart how it beats and beats
for my lovely lady fair.
For always I have loved you
from the very first day
and upon that day
it seemed all the world began.
Oh, how I remember the day
you first held my hand.
Though you knew not my name
I swore with a sacred oath
that I would never rest
day nor night
till I forever held you in my arms
and you knew all the love
that burned within this heart.
And all my life I shall give
and all my passion
I shall pour from my heart
though the price I should pay
should be a lonely cold grave
for this flame of love
burning in my heart
shall never go out
and I am bound to you
on cords of forever.
And for you this flame
shall ever burn.

Oh, you are an ocean
filled with memories and emotions
and all the mysterious things
that swim in your soul.
Oh, how can I plumb the depths
of your mysterious soul.
For it is far deeper than any ocean!
Oh, you seem have climbed
to the very top of heaven
and dived to the bottom of the sea
within that inky blackness far below.
Lived a million years
and understood all the mystery of creation.
Oh, how I find reasons without number
to fall in love with you
from this day to the end of eternity.
And each day my love for you
grows far beyond my love
that was only yesterday.
For it seems my love is like as tree
that begins as a small green leaf
and becomes a huge oak
as it climbs into the sky.
And every storm and ill wind
as it blows hard upon the tree
only gives it strength
as higher and higher it climbs into the sky.
Like bands of steel your love embraces me
and holds me captive.
And speaks to me of the love
that lives within us
as our hearts beat as one
as each speaks to each
in a language only we can understand.
And I know we only have each other
in all this infinite universe.
The loving father of all that is
on this world placed us
upon this tiny speck
in all the infinity of space
and in all the infinity of time.
And for this gift
a gift that is above all the gifts
for which I could have ever hoped
I shall eternally sing his praises
as the ages roll.
And hold this love for you in my heart
for as long as the stars burn in the sky.

Oh, my dear love.
Oh, how my life has changed!
In times past
when I was all alone
I had lost all hope
to ever see this thing that was called love.
Oh, it was like a ghost
that floated among the early morning fog
silently among its ancient trees
with its ghostly silence as old as time its self
and as moss did from each limb hang
as if to say love is but as ghost
and for you can never be real
in its search you waste day by day.
And every man did tell
of this mystic and strange thing
that was called love.
Oh, and with every of this thing called love
it seemed to take on such strange and exotic forms
that at last that love
was only the figment of some fevered imagination.
And that it inhabited some strange mythic land
where centars roamed and mermaids swam.
Oh, to me it was more unreal
than the ghosts that haunted some midnight graveyard.
But that was all before your time.
All before my life was forever changed
changed forever and evermore
in one timeless moment
in the twinkling of an eye
when I first gazed upon your lovely form.
And it seemed in that timeless moment
that my soul was born.
And my heart began to sing
of your lovely form.
Oh, I shall you in my heart
at the bottom of my soul
till the end of time
through the march of all the days
in their endless infinity.
And it seems before you
that that time before I knew your name
was but a time before time
and in those days I was only a shadow
a dream I dreamed of myself
with less form and substance
than all the myths of old.
In the days
when Pan danced to his pipes
as he kept time with his hoof.
Oh, as he kept time with his hoof.
and sirens sang
to slay sailors upon their rocky shore.
And Zeus held court
upon distant mount Olympus
high among the bellowing clouds.
and the Sibyls sang and mumbled
their guidance form Apollo to every passerby.
And oh you are in me!
And every fiber of my being
contains all my love for you.
For without you I would be no more
as the shadows fade into nothing
with the sun's dying light
and once again all the world turns into night.
Oh, all of you is forever within me
as you fill my heart and soul to overflowing.
And I shall seek your love
for all eternity
and all of time overflowing.
