Just like a songbird deep in the forest I sing praises that you never hear Deep inmybody my songis silent But contented at times whenyou're near
Please listen to me and I will tell thee All those words that have never been said They shout inside me but then they cower Behind weakness that's rulin' my head
I dearly love thee and not one other Will know sweetness that lies in my breast 'Tis you that made me but God forbade me To uncover my heart to love's test
No love is sorrow and how I'm happy To have thee in this world for my love And now you must know my soul is for thee That's why this life is my soarin' dove That's why this life is my soarin' dove
