Love Me With All Your Heart
Ken Dodd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love me with all of your heart, that's all I want, love.
Love me with all of your heart, or not at all.
Just promise me this, that you'll give me all your kisses
Every winter, every summer, every fall...
When we are far apart or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart as I love you
Don't give me your love for a moment or an hour
Love me always as you've loved me from the start
With every beat of your heart...
Just promise me this, that you'll give me all your kisses
Every winter, every summer, every fall...
When we are far apart or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart as I love you
Don't give me your love for a moment or an hour




Love me always as you've loved me from the start
With every beat of your heart.

RIP. Why do we always have to admire these legends once they are gone. We take them for granted when they are here. I wish I could give him one big hug now. Proud to be from Liverpool with you ken. Met him in the florist on Eaton Road. Great friendly guy. Watched him as a child at the Empire Liverpool. Sadly missed. Gone from us today but with us forever.
