Accompaniment by Sara Welland:
Lyrics
- I gave you all my heart and soul
What have I in return?
A little smile, a little kiss
And memories that burn
You’ve shown me just what life could be
My heart has heard love’s call
But if I can’t have all your love
Then give me none at all
Refrain
I can’t get enough of your kisses
I’m counting the few that you gave
I gloat all the while over each little smile
That made me forever your slave
I save ev’ry letter you send me
I hide them where no one can see
And the more live you give me, the more love I crave
You’re making a miser of me
- I cherish ev’ry thought of you
Your love is all I need
Somehow I always crave for you
My love has turned to greed
How sweet and happy are the hours
When I sit by your side
The love I get is not enough
And I’m not satisfied
