I Love You Much Too Much
Andrew Sisters & Glenn Miller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've known it from the start
But yet my love is such
I can't control my heart
I love you much too much
I ask myself what for
Then, darling, when we touch
Perhaps I hold your heart too tightly
But who am I to say
If I should hold it lightly
It might slip away
I love you much too much
You've never really known
I love you oh so much
I'm yours alone.
I love you much too much, I love you much too much
I've known it from the start, right from the start
But yet my love is such,
I can't control my heart
I love you much too much
I love you too much oh my dear
I've known it from the start
But, but, but my love is such
I can't control my heart
Perhaps I hold your heart too tightly
But who am I to say
If I should hold it lightly
It might slip away
I love you much too much
You've never really known
Oh no, oh no you've never known
I love you oh so much, so much
I'm yours alone, alone.
The lyrics to Andrew Sisters & Glenn Miller's song "I Love You Much To Much" describe the overwhelming love and affection the singer feels for their partner. They confess that they have been aware of the intensity of their love from the beginning of their relationship, yet they cannot control their heart's feelings. This love is so strong that when they are in physical contact with their partner, their love becomes even greater.
However, the singer acknowledges that they may be holding their partner's heart too tightly, but they are afraid that if they let go, it might slip away. The last line expresses the singer's pure devotion for their beloved, stating that they are theirs alone.
The song's lyrics express a common theme of romantic love, but what sets it apart is the sincerity and intensity with which it is delivered. The arrangement, in typical Glenn Miller style, features a big-band sound with a strong rhythm section and brass section that compliments the singer's passionate delivery. The song has been covered by various artists over the years, but none can replicate the magic of the Andrew Sisters and Glenn Miller's original version.
