I love you much too much
I’ve known it from the start
But yet my love is such
I can’t control my heart
I love you much too much
I ask myself what for
Then, darling, when we touch
Mmmm, I love you more
Perhaps I hold your heart too tightly
But who am I to say
If I should hold it lightly
It might slip away
I love you much too much
You’ve never really known
I love you oh so much
I’m yours alone.
I love you much too much, I love you much too much
I’ve known it from the start, right from the start
But yet my love is such,
I can’t control my heart
I love you much too much
I love you too much oh my dear
I’ve known it from the start
But, but, but my love is such
I can’t control my heart
Perhaps I hold your heart too tightly
But who am I to say
If I should hold it lightly
It might slip away
(Musical Break)
I love you much too much
You’ve never really known
Oh no, oh no you’ve never known
I love you oh so much, so much
I’m yours alone, alone.
