How much do I love thee?
This is a hard thing to say
How much do I love thee?
Let me ‘splain it to you this way.

I love you more than I have ever loved another.
I love you more than I care … for my own druthers.

I love you so... that it makes me laugh.
I love you so ...that it hurts my heart.
I love you so... that it lightens my age-- by half.
I love you so…that you in my life...a huge part.

If love were a feeling,
Not the verb that I know,
My soul would be reeling,
For the love that I sow!

You are for me a God given gift
For you my love, I 'd cross any rift.

How much do I love thee?
This is a hard thing to say.
How much do I love thee?
Only God knows, in His way.
