Oh, my love, if I had wings I would fly up to the heavens And bring back all the glory of all the stars And I would present them to you to thank you For all the ways that you have brought light into my life And filled my heart with such a radiance. But I know that there aren't enough stars In all the heavens to ever equal Even a tiny percent of your luster. Oh, my love, if I had all the riches Of all the kings and queens that ever graced this earth. If I had all their grandeur, all their royalty, all their splendor I would offer it all to you on a diamond platter In a meager effort to try to repay all the ways That you have filled my life with the richness of your love, The wealth of your time, the treasure of your heart. Oh, my love, if I had all the time That had ever been since the beginning of creation If I had all the moments that could squeeze into a lifetime I would gather all the seconds, all the minutes, all the hours I would bring together all this time and give it all to you. But I know that even all the time in the history of time Would never be enough to replenish all you have given me. Alas, my love, I have not all that you are worthy of. I could never hope to give to you all that you deserve. I can only give to you the meager offerings of a poor soul The pledge of my endless love, a vow of eternal faithfulness And of course my heart, which you have already captured And held deep within the infinity of your soul. |
