I can’t help but love you
When the sun is in the sky,
And all the birds are flying,
While the clouds are rolling by;
I can’t help but love you,
With the lark’s song on the breeze-
And the mockingbird, a tease-
Who could help, but love you?
I can’t help but love you
Though you’re distant as the moon,
Mostly far as western China,
And the sun up, at high noon;
I can’t help but love you,
An eclipse lives in my heart-
Because we’re far apart-
Who could help, but love you?
I can’t help but love you
When the moon circles the earth,
And the sun craves all the planets,
And the day is giving birth;
I can’t help but love you-
Even blood inside my veins
Holds a little bit of flames;
Who could help, but love you?
