It grows somewhere inside of me
And warms my heart, your love, you see….
And fills me with this fateful glow
That longs for you, a burning, slow
And as it grows it quickens that
Which courses through my veins, and at
The moment when it fills my soul
It makes me love you, makes me whole.
So take me, that which makes me love,
And all of me is not enough,
But take my spirit and my name,
Take all of me from whence I came….
Leave nothing left to ponder
That which doesn’t feel and doesn’t wonder,
I beheld the real you
And that leaves nothing left to do
But place me there in your own heart
And keep me, so we never part,
So I can live within the glow
Of you, and love the girl I know.
