my love was trapped within a bottle ’til you poured it out
my love, it made me laugh and cry – made me scream and shout
my love was cramped and beaten down, my love was not at rest
now that it is free it makes my heart howl from my chest
my love, it’s timid and afraid – away from light, it shies
my love seems to resemble pairs of deep and pretty eyes
my love was like a stranger I did not recognize
now that I do know my love, I see through all disguise
my love was like a river which my heart it did up-sweep
I’ll have my love, my endless love, to have, to hold, to keep
