i carry your heart with me

I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)
I am never without it (anywhere I go you go; my dear, and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling)

I fear
No fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will sing is you
Here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life,which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
