Still I Find You Deeper In My Heart

There are times that I wonder how much you do love me
when people want to drive us apart
and still I find you deeper in my heart,

even when people fabricate lies,
when they hit, spit and lay accusations.
There are times that I wonder how much you do love me

even when there is resistance in every sentence of yours,
even when people bring you to anger by saying things
and still I find you deeper in my heart

and I know that nothing can conquer true love,
while I keep to the oath that I have made.
There are times that I wonder how much you do love me

and even if my words and deeds as if without affect
when people hide behind hearsay
and still I find you deeper in my heart,

as if our love continually starts over again,
when people want to squash everything beautiful between us.
There are times that I wonder how much you do love me
and still I find you deeper in my heart.
