MY LOVE FOR YOU
(Les Pouliot)
Gordon Lightfoot 1982
Lightfoot's only movie roll in 1982 (Harry Tracy: Desperado) on DVD only
Also goes under the name of Harry Tracy: The Last Of The Wild Bunch
My love for you is as wild and true as the wind o'er the sea
On winter nights so bleak and cold, it always will remain
On summer eves, when the breeze whispers your name
Like a star of this I'll be singing
Oh with you I will spend every evening.
And my love like the light above shall shine eternally
At the end of time, you'll still be mine
And I'll be here with thee.
My love for you is as wild and true as the wind o'er the tide
As it travels 'round this whole wide world it gathers seeds of love
Through desert sands, through snow and ice and high up above
It gathers all the thoughts of lonely couples
Until the cup of love over bubbles.
And with a song it carries on through the skies of blue
At the end of time, you'll still be mine
And I'll be here with you.
My love for you is as wild and true as the wind o'er the sea
On winter nights so bleak and cold, it always will remain
On summer eves, when the breeze whispers your name
Like a star of this I'll be singing
Oh if you ever spend every evening.
And my love like the light above shall shine eternally
At the end of time, you'll still be mine
And I'll be here with thee.
