Ernie Fields and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If it should reach all of the heart of you
I'll offer the heart you had manage to break
I'll offer the love that forgave your mistake
Deep in my heart you still belong to me
I only know I'll never, never be free
Please don't consider the love a closed episode
The love that we knew comes to few

My silent prayer is for the love we knew
I am silently praying for the love that we had in the past
If it should reach all of the heart of you
If my prayer is answered and you feel it deeply in your heart
I'll offer the heart you had manage to break
I will give you my heart even though it has been broken by you
I'll offer the love that forgave your mistake
I will give you my love even though you made a mistake and hurt me
Deep in my heart you still belong to me
You still have a special place in my heart
I only know I'll never, never be free
I know that I will never be free from the love I have for you
Please don't consider the love a closed episode
I ask that you don't see our love as something that has come to an end
The love that we knew comes to few
Our love was special and rare, not many people experience that kind of love
For my silent love is for you and only for you
My love for you is silent but it is only for you
