Write Your Name (Across My Heart)

Kenny Rogers · Through the Years: A Reteospective [1999]

I can't help smiling when I look at you,

To keep from going crazy is all I can do.

I'm so defenseless with you so close,

The walls have crumbled from my body and soul.



Write your name across my heart.

I want the world to know that I am yours forever.

And I will wear it like a shining star.

Write your name across my heart.



To you my life is an open door.

Everything I have is yours.

I'll try to give you everything you need,

But as far as love goes, there's a life-time guarantee.



Write your name across my heart.

I want the world to know that I am yours forever.

And I will wear it like a shining star.

Write your name across my heart.



In all my thoughts, in all I do, in all I say,

I belong to you with every breath I take....



Write your name across my heart,

I want the world to know that I am yours forever.

And I will wear it like a shining star.

Write your name, across my heart.



And I will wear it like a shining star,

Write your name across my heart.

Across my heart.

Across my heart.
