Man of My Heart

More Than You'll Ever Know

Today I cried when I realized
For the very first time
How much I need you
I’ve been good at holding back
Keeping you at arms length.
Telling myself, this one’s dangerous
Don’t let it happen
It will only break your heart
But I find you getting closer
Invading my chamber space
Taking my mind with greater frequency
To that place where you and I go
Wanting your arms and words,
Finding I need you more than I care to admit
To anyone in daylight or darkness
Am I just feeling vulnerable?
We both need to be strong
We’ve had a lot to deal with
The time apart only deepened
Our moments together
With greater love and understanding
So I’ll sing it softly, hoping you won’t hear
Man of my heart, I need you so
More than you’ll ever know!
