My Love For You

from I Knew A Girl Once by Ray Zimmerman

/

lyrics

Don't you know that I'd live a thousand lives
To spend my love one more moment with you

And I’d forego living every one
If my love you but asked me to

For though the wind blows harder now
It carries me to your arms

And though the storm is raging still
Behind I see the stars

If I drop dead tomorrow dig a shallow grave
Dry all the tears from your eyes
For though my soul may be been and gone
My love for you won’t die

If I wore armour old and worn
I know my love that you’d patch the holes
Yet through those holes know I'd bear thorns
To bring to you my sweet love a rose

Though the nights grow longer dear
If all of the stars cease to shine
I’d be beside you constantly
If you'd spare the time

If I go off to war
Won’t you write to me please
I'll bear letters in place of a blade
If I'm carried away laid to rest on my shield
My love for you won’t fade

If I’m taken by wolves
Dressed in black cotton suits
If I never again see the day
Look for me no longer dear
For my love for you will stay

If you find another
To place in your heart
Another for whom you will long
Take from me almost all that I have
For to you my love will always belong
