A LOVE TOO STRONG

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
it is so deep that it seems to be wrong
I want to be around her every chance that I get
but all of my loving has gotten her upset

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
she makes me happy but she sings a sad song
I drown her with my love and she feels closed in
What she wants is to be free to do her own thing

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
and when I show my love I do it wrong
I have a hold on my lady and it is tight
For she is always telling me that it’s not right

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
for it is interfering with our getting along
I really don’t know why my love is so very deep
But it keeps my lady unhappy all through the week

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
I want her to myself and I mean no harm
Can it be so wrong to love so dear
that it keeps my lady full of tears

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
But only to my lady do I belong
I love her so much that I won’t let her go
and the way I feel nobody knows

I love my lady, but my love is too strong
for I pray that she will soon sing a happy song
I’m not trying to keep her just to myself
but when she is gone I have no one left


I love my lady, but my love is too strong
she is the only one that’s on my mind
But there is always something I do that is wrong
But I keep on trying and hoping that we will get alone

O sweet lady! Can’t you see
all the love I have deep inside of me
A love so strong that I can’t let you go
how much I love you, you will never know
