Analysis of I CAN LOVE YOU A MILLION WAYS
I CAN LOVE YOU A MILLION WAYS.
I can love you a million ways
If it's love you do wish finds you
Not just boring words and dull romance
But alluring life you do deserve
All day, I shall offer, delightful affection.
Listen, I can fulfil your earthly fantasies
Treat you to gaiety only cherubs can give
Drain you heart of worries and pain
Scuffles and heartbreaks
And put pleasure
In every night your charming eyes sees.
I can love you; pull down the skies
For your sake,
Travel several seas to see you smile
Spend fortune on florists' desk
To fill your floors with radiant flowers
And if you do like sweet solos
Be that soloist, to sing out my soul to you.
Love you in winter, autumn and spring
And in summer, when the hot sun sits
Smiling from deep covers of the sky.
I can love you a million ways
Love you like the earth
Loves the moon
At the darkest times of the night.
Pouring you plaudits, till you promise
To still love, even in the cold churchyard -
Earth afix to earth.
What manner of maiden desireth
Not such love in her lantern days?
Oh, you must tell me how to love you
If you desireth not such love.
Cluttered ice melt when heat approaches,
But I will hold you, loamy- soil's- like
The shrubs' roots,
And sing you lullaby, then lure you to sleep.
I can you a million ways
Never stopping even when trouble catches
I in this act.
Love you like bingo loves crispy bones
Adore every step of your unswerving feet
And be your lone lover
Till the day never passes by.
I will love you, again and again
If this path, Christ, allow us cross.
I can love you a million ways
Love you, like no other can love
Love you now and always
If it's love you do wish finds you
I can love you, I can love you a million ways.
