I love you with the whole of my mind, soul and heart,
loving you all the more as more of you I learn.
With you life overflows; in friendship, let love start
as now our paths collide. With passion I do yearn
to be there at your side, the one who cares for you,
loving you all the more. As more of you I learn,
I want to hold you close, to take the pain you knew,
wrapping you in my arms and never letting go.
To be there at your side, the one who cares for you,
is all I ask of you. One thing that I do know,
I want to be the one to whom for help you turn.
Wrapping you in my arms and never letting go,
I'll never walk away, with love for you I burn:
please open up your life, drop your walls, let me in.
I want to be the one to whom for help you turn
when trouble comes your way and night invades within.
I love you with the whole of my mind, soul and heart.
Please open up your life, drop your walls, let me in
with you. Life overflows in friendship: let love start!
