True Love

I carry your heart with me,

I carry it in my heart

and I'm never without it.

anywhere I go, you go, my dear.

and whatever is done, by only me,

is your doing, my darling.

I fear no fear for you are my fate, my sweet.

I want no world for beautiful,

you are my world my true.

it's you or whatever a moon has always meant,

and whatever a sun will always sing is you.

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the branch of the tree called life

which grows higher and higher than t

he soul can hope or mind can hide

and this is the wonder that is keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart,

I carry it in my heart.

I don't know what it is about you that closes and opens, only something in me understands

the voice in your eyes is deeper than all roses."
