I Know My I Love You Isn'T Enough

I'm a sinner 
Confessing my love
But how's it wrong, to say it
When you love this much

She's my penny from Heaven
With sunshine for a soul
She answers my prayers 
With her heart made of gold

I know my I love you isn't enough
For two hearts 
Filled with passion
That long for the touch

Forever I'll walk
Holding the crutch
Of knowing my I love you
Just isn't enough 

She's like a rainbow that falls
At the base of my feet
The one that all others
Wish they could meet

And while she looks away
I still reach for the sky
In hopes that I'll hear
Let's make love tonight

I know my I love you isn't enough
For two hearts 
Filled with passion
That long for the touch

Forever I'll walk
Holding the crutch
Of knowing my I love you
Just isn't enough 

Though souls seldom know
I fully believe
That when mine found yours
It found the one it seeked 

And I may not get to hold you
Before this world I leave
But when I go I will know
You were the one meant for me

I know that my I love you 
Just isn't enough 
And no matter how strong
I'm still not that tough 

To go one while knowing 
Life's called my bluff
Until the day my I love you
Becomes enough

Until the day
My I love you
Becomes enough
