I love you so

When the mist veils the first ray at dawn,

when the dusk dims the last light,

when the mourning dove coos a new start,

when the velvet blue signals Orpheus's hand,

I love you so, near me, with me

When the noon heat exhausts the effort,

when the day grows old and spent,

when the spirit of giving is no more,

when it is time to get home

I love you so, by me, holding me

When life is running out of time,

when the years weigh heavy,

when tomorrow is not certain,

when the pain gets louder,

I love you so, with you I can go on
