To My Lover

I would give you my heart,
But it was yours long ago.
Even before I said, "I love you,"
I knew it was so.
I would hold your hand,
But I'd rather touch your face...
And as you lean in to kiss me,
Feel my heart race.
I want to pledge my soul to you
And become your wife,
As long as you can love me
And want me in your life.
