Letters, Strings and All 15

I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own
It's for you and you alone
That's all, that's all.

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter night
That's all, that's all

There are those, I am sure, who have told you
They would give you the world for a toy
All I have are these arms to enfold you

And a love time can never destroy

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Say it's me that you'll adore
For now, til' ever more
That's all, that's all

I've been playing this song over and over again in my head for the longest time. I spotted it one time on the shelves and I felt it spoke the words my heart could not. I can't tell you that I can give you the world but I can give you everything that I own. I'll give you my world. I love you.
