I love you more than a slow-falling summer rain More than a silence that only the snow leaves behind I love you more And i love you better than the grey of the autumn air Better than spring in its blooming against the sky I love you more
It may not be red as the roses yet It may not be strong as the old oak trees, but … Love planted deeply becomes what it ought to be
Your love is steady and sure as the mountains high Moving my heart like a river that gently bends Your love is sure Your love is wide open spaces where i can run And yet, we're tangled up roots in the warm broken earth Our love is sure
And it may not be clear as the morning yet It may not be wide as a restless sea, but … Love given freely becomes what it ought to be
And … hearts given freely becomes what they ought And … love given freely becomes what it ought to be What it ought to be
