Lyrics
My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the skyMy love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my loveSomething happened to my heart the day that I met you
Something that I never felt before
You are always on my mind, no matter what I do
And every day it seems I want you moreMy love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the skyMy love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my loveOnce I thought that love was meant for anyone else but me
Once I thought you’d never come my way
Now it only goes to show how wrong we all can be
For now I have to tell you everydayMy love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the skyMy love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my loveMy love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the skyMy love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love
