Julie London Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

More than the greatest love
The world has known this is the love
I'll give to you alone
More than the simple words
I've tried to say
I only live to love you more each day
More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine
Oh no, I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No-one else could love you more
I know I never lived before





And my heart is very sure
No-one else could love you more
