Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know this may not come as a surprises
You surely must have seen it in my eyes
Darlin', it's plain as can be
I love the way that you've been lovin' me
There's so much that my heart would like to say
And though my lips have never found a way
Each touch explains tenderly
I love the way that you've been lovin' me
Others may search for heaven
But, darling, I just can't see
Why I should search for heaven
When heaven is mine constantly
Though I've become a prisoner of your love
I swear by all the stars that shine above
I never wanna be free
I love the way that you've been lovin' me
I never wanna be free
I love the way that you've been lovin' me
