That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her to
I love her
She gives my everything
And tenderly
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her, ooh

Line by Line Meaning
I give her all my love
All of my affection is dedicated solely to her
That's all I do
Loving her consumes all of my time and energy
And if you saw my love
If you could witness the love and beauty that she possesses
You'd love her too
You would also be deeply enamored by her
She gives me everything
She provides me with everything I need, both physically and emotionally
And tenderly
In a way that is gentle and affectionate
The kiss my lover brings
The intimate and loving gesture of kissing that my partner offers
She brings to me
She bestows upon me this tender act
A love like ours could never die
Our mutual love and devotion will never fade away
As long as I have you near me
As long as I am in close proximity to you, my love will always be strong
Bright are the stars that shine
The celestial bodies that illuminate the night sky radiate with brilliance
Dark is the sky
The backdrop against which these stars shine is blanketed in darkness
I know this love of mine will never die
I am certain that my love will continue to thrive and endure
And I love her
I am deeply and passionately in love with her

My mother was into the Big Band era, Glenn Miller, Dorsey, Goodman, etc... but every once in a while, she could tolerate some newer music. She didn't like Rock & Roll at all, but she liked some softer stuff. I came across this video in 2014, and I asked her to listen to it ( I was her caregiver by then). She was skeptical when I said it was a guitar rendition, but she let me play it. It absolutely melted her heart. She died about a month later sadly, but I was glad she got to experience a different type of music and was able to enjoy it. Miss you, Mom.
