I loved her,
I loved her with a passion-
And deeper,
Beyond the trim and fasion
Of living
The days from morning to night,
And reaching
To catch a span of moonlight.
I loved her.
I loved her,
As earth loves the golden shore,
As the ocean
Rolls in and asks for more
Of the arms
That keep it from going astray,
I loved her-
But more than my words can say.
Yes, more than my words can say..
I loved her.
