I can't be free to marry you we both know that

But I dedicate my life to you each minute that I live

And if you'll only try to take me like I am I'll give you what there is of me to give

I can't live with you but I'll live for you every minute every hour every day

I can't live with you but I'll live for you and I'll try to make you happy in my own way

[ steel ]

I'll think of you each morning when the sun comes up

I'll think of you at midnight when I lay me down to sleep

I'll be true to you with every single breath I take

All that's mine but me is yours to keep

I can't live with you...

Yes I'll try to make you happy in my own way
