Frances Ruffelle - Too Much For One Heart

Outside there is a war
But here the night is still
The jasmine buds have bloomed
The way that jasmine will
And I have given birth
To a sparkle of life
To a speckle of dust
To a small hint of life
How when the world can be so cruel
Can such floods of feelings start
This is love that overwhelms me
This is too much for one heart
How in the face of all this beauty
Can two lovers be apart?
All the feelings are inside me
This is too much for one heart
Yours, half of all of this is yours
Half of all this boundless joy
Come, come and see
The best of you and have me
Don't you know that nothing's worth
As much as one true love's worth
He is more than the beauty of a rainbow
As it arcs above the sky
When I see his child before me
Sometimes I just have to cry
Have to cry
Now, I want everything to change
The past is mine to rearrange
Come to me soon
Or I know that you will find me
Surely as sunlight
Always seeks out the moon
I have been living with such wonders
That my soul could burst apart
This is lightning without thunder
This is too much for one heart
