The sheet music:
Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- You say you care not for the world
Or if it mock and jeer
You care not for its smiles or frowns
If I were always near
And so I take you at your word
And pledge my love to you
For from the first time that you asked
My heart told me you knew
Refrain
I give you all you ask
All of my love I give
And to you I will be true as long as I shall live
You have no need to seek
I know no sweeter task
All, all you crave, when you asked, I gave
I give you all you ask
- You need not go to heights or depths
To prove your love is true
Your kisses tell me more than words
That naught can part us two
For me you say, you’d give your soul?
Well, I’d give mine for you
This world holds nothing else for me
Without you life is through
