That's All
Eternal Love and Simple Joys: That's All by June Christy
Lyrics
I can only give you love that lasts forever
I can only provide enduring love.
And the promise to be near each time you call
I promise to be close whenever you call.
And the only heart I own for you and you alone
My heart belongs to you and you alone.
That's all, that's all
This is the sum of what I can offer, and it is enough.
I can only give you country walks in springtime
I offer simple pleasures like country walks in spring.
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
I'll be there to support you as seasons change.
And a love whose burning light
My love will provide warmth even in winter.
Will warm the winter night
It's a love with a passionate and enduring light.
That's all, that's all
Reiterating that the simplicity of love is enough.
There are those, I am sure, who have told you
Acknowledging that others may make grand promises.
They would give you the world for a toy
Contrasting with those who offer material possessions.
All I have are these arms to enfold you
I have only my arms to embrace and comfort you.
And the love time can never destroy
Emphasizing the enduring nature of true love.
If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
Addressing what is sought in return for love.
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Expressing that the expectations are modest.
Say it's me that you adore, for now and evermore
Asking for affection and commitment, both now and forever.
That's all, that's all
Summarizing the simplicity of the desired commitment.
There are those, I am sure, who have told you
Repeating the idea that grand gestures are not needed.
They would give you the world for a toy
Reiterating the contrast with materialistic offers.
All I have are these arms to enfold you
Highlighting the value of emotional support and embrace.
And the love time can never destroy
Underlining the enduring nature of love over time.
If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
Clarifying the modest expectations in the relationship.
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Stating that the demands for love are minimal.
Say it's me that you adore, for now and evermore
Requesting acknowledgment of being adored now and forever.
That's all, that's all
Concluding with the affirmation that this is all that is needed.
