[Verse 1:]
For the longest time
I searched high above the sky
To find the one for me
Sweet birds got in my limbs
And told me
It was purely destiny

A few clouds came my way
And suddenly came the break of day
And it was you
Only you
Then I gave my love to you

[Chorus:]
(And I gave my love to you)
And I gave my love to you
(And my rivers flow)
And my rivers
My sweet rivers flow for you

(Please don't tear my heart)
Please don't tear my heart into two
As I give my love to you
As I open wide for you

[Verse 2:]
Sailing cautiously without knowing
That my reality will soon come
Strong winds brought me from my high
I drifted gradually from my ride

Touching down
Kissing ground
It's you that I look for
Let's be two
My baby
As I give my love to you

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Verse 3:]
Tender lover
Blow your cover
Release emotions
For there's no other
But us two

Give it to me and I'll
I'll give it to you
Mmm
Discover trust in my sweet caress
Female sunshine
And nothing less

Just the touch of my hand
And infinite want for my man
Yeah
Gonna make you mine
Yeah
Until the end of time

Mmm
Cause I'm open wide with so little to do
Simply put
I live my life for you
Give it to me
And I'll give my love to you

[Repeat Chorus:]

(And I gave my love to you)
And I gave my love to you
(And my rivers flow)
And my rivers
Sweet rivers
They flow for only you

(Please don't tear my heart)
Please don't tear my heart into two
Yeah
As I gave my love to you
Yeah
As I gave my love

And I gave my love to you
And my rivers flow for you
Please don't tear my heart in two
As I gave my love to you
(Yeah, and I gave my love to you)
(Yeah, and I gave my love)
