Oh, how I love you.
Oh, how I love you to distraction!
There is nothing I would not give you.
Nothing that I would not give
to win your love.
My darling the love in your heart
is the treasure I so long for.
Oh, your love is so dear to me
and I know that your kisses
are like the finest wine
served upon the table of some great king.
Oh, let me hold you forever in my arms
and hold your precious warm body
and feel your loving heart beat
and drink in your sweet warm kisses.
Oh, if I could only win that treasure
within the heart that I love so dearly.
I  desire you  my love
beyond all this world has to offer.
Beyond all the glory and riches
of all the kingdoms that ever were.
Oh, my loving angel
how this love and endless longing for you
ever fills my heart.
You are more precious to me
than fine gold.
Oh, how I long to stroke your hair
and kiss your sweet warm lips.
Oh, how you have penetrate my soul
to the very depths of its being.
My last thought
and the last word upon my lips
when I lay my head upon my pillow
night after night
are of you.
Oh, dear lord in heaven!
How I love you so!!
Oh, if I could only write a song
that would tell of my love for you
how the music would fill
all of heaven above
and outshine its eternal glory.
Oh, how it would fill this wide world!
Such lovely music
would cover it from pole to pole.
And all the underworld
that glorious would fill
and turn all its darkness into light.
Oh my dear love
how your eyes draw me
into the depths of your soul
and bind me forever
in such a passionate inescapable  longing.
that no man has ever known.
Oh, you are ever in my heart
and I shall love you till my dying day!
Oh, I would rather die in your precious arms
than live a thousand years
without you my dear love.
