If I Were Your Love

If I were your love,
I would cherish you like the heaven above,
like you're the only air that gives me my life. 
I'd always be glad that you were my wife. 

I would shower you every moment with my kiss.
Being with you would be my ultimate bliss. 
If I lost you, I would rather die. 
In stormy weather, you'd be my only bright sky.

I would give you my world and my universe. 
I would carry your will with all heart without reverse. 
For the sake of your dream, I would cross the looming fountain. 
I'd be the sailing ship and you'd be the captain. 

For the sake of your honor, I would lay down my heart. 
My only wish is for us to never part. 
Your love is a bliss of divine rapture. 
You'd be my yesterday, my present and my future.
