You're my life, my past, my future
No-one can come close to you
Words are hard to summon, but I've never loved a
Woman how I love you so completely true
There books of lives and lovers
Mine begins and ends with you
There between the covers lies a love so many others
Only dream to feel but for us it's real

So shelter me in your caress
Our love outshines the diamond, pales the pearl
Any place without you near
Is the loneliest place in the world
Under you my darling angel
I have built a pedestal
As my soul companion, there's a canyon setting you
And womankind apart deep within my heart

So shelter me in your caress
Our love has weathered storms and still come through
But isn't that the way it is
I'm not trying to hide what I'm feeling inside
I can't live without you, there's nowhere to hide
When the coldest steel is emptiness
Without your love my life would be absurd
For I can see beyond the tears to the loneliest place in the world

You are the girl who means the world to me
You're the most beautiful there's ever been
You have it all my love you're all I see
Oh believe in me
There's no way but you darling
Nothing can keep us apart
Through the years the pen is showing
Every line dries hard and yet
Let the pages crumble, for as long as ink is flowing
I will never let you have one regret.
