I only say I'd give my life
Because I've lost my heart
To a man who holds it dear
Like a treasured, ancient art
I entrust him with this heart of mine
It beats for him alone
Without his hands to cradle it
This love would go unknown
My future is finally in focus
When I hold his hand in mine
Were he to let go suddenly
I would be walking blind
He never tells me where to go
But I know where I want to be
In the warmth of his embrace
I'll never wander aimlessly
I'd only ever give my life
To the man who makes me live
For as much as this man means to me
There's nothing less I'd give
