Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The day I met you my heart spoke to me it said to love you through eternity
I know exact you were another's pride I vowed I always be close by your side
I love you Darlin and I always will
I know you're married but I love you still
You broke a heart dear that would die for you
I'd give the world if I could be with you
The game is over now I know I've lost my broken heart will have to pay the cost
I love you darlin and I always will
I know you're married but I love you still
You broke a heart dear that would die for you
I'd give the world if I could be with you
You know I love you and I always will
I know your married but I love you still
You know I love and I always will
I know your married but I love you still
