So Much Love To Give

 

Inspired by Glenn Hughes song
So Much Love to Give, 1993
From his album, LA Blues Authority, Vol II

~~~** ~~~

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)
I am never without it (anywhere I go, you go) and
whatever is done by me is your doing ... E.E. Cummings


how many nights I cried
my heart aching
into each dream you glide
you leave me wanting
with deep love I have sighed
for I am part of your heart
and I carry a piece of you in my heart

I can feel your caress
your words of love
if you ask marry me I will say yes
of you I am part of
and
of you I am proud of
for I am part of your heart
and I carry a piece of you in my heart

I love you ...
when we are together I feel whole
our passion came unbidden
and now I am smitten
our mutual love is never hidden
oh, those eyes of blue
my heart you have stole
for I am part of your heart
and I carry a piece of you in my heart

your love shakes the ocean of my sleep
and I carry a piece of you in my heart
our love is forever deep
for I am part of your heart
for I am part of your heart
and I carry a piece of you in my heart
