I Only Have One Heart

[trishriley]

I love you more than words could say
No matter what I'm here to stay
I give to you my beating heart
Because I know we'll never part.

You are the one who keeps me strong
When you're around nothing goes wrong
I'll take your hand and go where you go
With us together our love will grow.

I only have one heart
So please don't crush it or rip it apart
Hold me tight when I start to cry
Hold on and I'll tell you why.

When I cry it's because you're here
Because with you I have no fear
You give me strength to go through the day
Then my tears begin to go away.

I know that you will never leave me
That's why I know we're meant to be
I will tell you everyday
How much I love you in every way.

Hmm...I don't really like the rhyme in this. The AB pattern seems a little forced and throws off the rhythm of the piece. It has potential though. I like this:

"When I cry its because you're here"

....there is something hopeless and yet romantic in those words.
