In the quiet of the night, under the pale moonlight I ponder how to love you, oh so right With a whisper of the wind, my confessions begin To tell the tale of love that's been hiding within How could I love you? Let me count the ways With every sunrise, until the end of days In laughter and in sorrow, in every heartfelt sigh I'll love you more with each day that passes by Through the storms, I'll be your shelter, your guiding star so bright Holding you close through the darkest night In the joy of the morning, with the sky so blue I'll show you love that's steadfast and true How could I love you? Let me count the ways With every sunrise, until the end of days In laughter and in sorrow, in every heartfelt sigh I'll love you more with each day that passes by How could I love you? Let me count the ways With every sunrise, until the end of days In laughter and in sorrow, in every heartfelt sigh I'll love you more with each day that passes by Could it be in the little things, a gentle touch, a smile? Or in grand gestures, that go the extra mile? But I know in my heart, it's in every shared beat In every moment together, both bitter and sweet How could I love you? Let me count the ways With every heartbeat, through all our shared days In silence and in song, in every whispered vow I'll love you deeply, from this moment till now How could I love you? Let me count the ways With every heartbeat, through all our shared days In silence and in song, in every whispered vow I'll love you deeply, from this moment till now So here's my love song, simple but true A melody of how I could love you With every note, with every line I'll love you, my dear, until the end of time
