Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that I've known the comfort of your arms
No other love.
Oh the sweet contentment that I find with you every time
Every time.
No other lips could want you more
For I was born to glory in your kiss.
Forever yours
Til the stars burn out above you
Til the moon is but a silver shell
No other love, let no other love
Know the wonder of your spell
