"Pour My Love On You" - Lyrics
The csidorS


[Verse 1:]
I don't know how to say exactly how I feel
I can't begin to tell You what Your love has meant
I'm lost for words


Is there a way to show the passion in my heart
Can I express how truly great I think You are
My dearest friend
Lord, this is my desire
To pour my love on You


[Chorus:]
Like oil upon Your feet
Like wine for You to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on You
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on You
Till every drop is gone
I'll pour my love on You


[Verse 2:]
Is there a way to show the passion in my heart
Can I express how truly great I think You are
My dearest friend
Lord, this is my desire
To pour my love on You


[Chorus:]
Like oil upon Your feet
Like wine for You to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on You
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on You
Till every drop is gone
I'll pour my love on You


[Chorus:]
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on You
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on You




Till every drop is gone
Pour my love on You

[Verse 1]
I got your letter from the postman just the other day
So I decided to write you this song
And just to let you know exactly the way I feel
And let you know my love's for real

[Chorus]
Because I love you
And I'll do anything
I'll give you my heart, my everything
Because I love you
I'll be right by your side
To be your light, to be your guide

[Verse 2]
If you should feel that I don't really care
And that you're starting to lose ground
Just let me reassure you that you can count on me
And that I'll always be around

[Chorus]
Because I love you
My heart's an open door
Girl, won't you please come on in
Because I love you
I'll be right by your side
To be your light, to be your guide

I absolutely LOVE this song from way back when…to now in 2023. So sad that people don’t write (feel) like this anymore.

@NkiiA

Yeah I know. Love this music

@DaniElMasVisto

Totalmente de acuerdo con tu comentario 👌

@caseylehl2503

1989 to be exact - and a vocal masterpiece back then to be sure.

I also agree that musicians don't "feel" the same passion as they did back then either. I think technology in combination with the "saturation of ideas" has played a big part in the blandness of music quality today.

@ikke7627

Man, do I remember listening to him on my cassette tape laying with now my ex wife in 1989 in the grass. 19 years old and in love. 50’s now and still hold a spot for her.

@billodriscoll-iz8br

I remember this song from 1990
But it became a huge hit the following year in '91
What a powerful voice 👏 👌
Such a beautiful and heartfelt song 🎵
The 80s and 90s were great for music
Such a shame that there's no music like this anymore
