More than you know

More than you know

Man of my heart I love you so
Lately
I find you on my mind

More than you know
Whether you're right

Whether you're wrong

Man of my heart I'll string along

I need you so

More than you'll ever know

Loving you the way that I do

There's nothing I can do about it

Loving may be all you can give

But honey I can't live without it

Oh, how I'd sigh
How I'd cry

If you got tired and said good-bye

More than I'd show

More than you'll ever know
