Heartful of Love
Snowy White Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can only tell you the truth
I ain't got no money but, Lord above
I've got a heartful of love
Yes, I've got a heartful of love
I can't get you diamonds or a fancy car
I can't go living where those rich folks are
I've got a heartful of love
Now, I can tell wrong from right
Feeling so strong, it cuts like a knife
You can be sure as day follows night
I will give you the rest of my life
Yes, I will
I can't give you a necklace covered in pearl
But I've got something special for my pretty girl
I will give you all the time in the world
'Cause I've got a heartful of love
'Cause I've got a heartful of love
