Nine Lives

If I had but nine lives,
just like you,
I’d love you still
in each one
and crave more time;
it’s true.

If I had but nine lives,
I’d use each one
to show you
each and every day,
my heart is yours;
you are my sun.

If I had but nine lives,
I’d wish for nine more
knowing that each life
I’d fall deeper
in love with you,
my heart never to be poor.
