Oh, how you have captured my heart
like some dark angel
who  lulls me to sleep
with tinder whispers in the night.
Oh, you have captured me
as though I were a  rabbit
in a snare
and I am helpless before you.
Oh, do you know
how deeply
this loves grown.
Oh, do you know
that you are all the world to me.
Oh, your lovely heart
that beats within you
is such a great treasure to me.
You have carried me away
like a great overpowering flood
and all my will is gone.
Oh, you hold my soul
every fiber that I am
in the palm of your hand.
Oh, you are the queen of heaven
and beloved of my soul
and my love of you
will never let me return
to the broken and defeated man
that I was.
For you have breathed new life
into my soul.
Oh, there is nothing I would not do
to win your sweet love
and hold you forever
in my heart.
Oh, you are all
the life I shall ever seek to live.
Oh, the beginning and ending of the world
in you I see.
And you shall ever live
in this heart of mine
far longer than the stars shall ever shine.
