I Would Not Let You Go

This heart it knows no boundaries This simple truth I know Let not your tender heart be troubled I would not let you go. Your charm draws me to your shores In sunbeams of your fulgent glow This truth: My heart your love adores I would not let you go. As time may fleet and seasons die These words I'd have you know If health may bid our lives goodbye I would not let you go. Whatever joy may bless these eyes Whatever dark our lives may blow I shall but love you in every sunrise I would not let you go. And in my life your charms embrace Like flowers our love would grow And in earths light your Angels face I would not let you go. You have touched my heart so bright For you my dreams I'd forgo Thro' tears, thro' joys and blackest night I would not let you go.
