My lonely heart told me love had gone,
I heard that via word of mouth,
Yet my heart refused to be alone,
It sent misery on a road heading south,
I waited until my head was clear,
Looking for a beautiful view,
My heart was behind walls and out of touch,
Until finally I saw you,
Even when day gave way to night,
I refused to give up and just hung around,
I wanted to remain tender and do things right,
I dug in and refused to give ground,
My love grows stronger day by day,
I want you to be my very best friend,
I want you around whether work or play,
And by my side until time does end,
My love is constant and cannot be driven away,
It is as persistent as a love sick hound,
Open your heart and let my love stay,
Our hearts will forever be bound.
