Couldn't Love You (Any More Than I Do)

(album: Nick The Knife - 1982)

I could give you the moon upon a silver tray
Or anything you want me to do
But there's one task that you mustn't ask
'Cause I couldn't love you any more than I do

I could learn every line of Crime and Punishment
By heart and recite it to you
To swim seven seas would be a breeze, I bet
But I couldn't love you any more than I do

With a night class or two, I'd master jiu-jitsu
Or elementary digital-ese
But one subject I would have to reject
'Cause I couldn't love you any more than I do

Lately, I've been sick and tired of
All kind of things
Sometimes, I feel less than human
Much more machine

I could give you the moon upon a silver tray
But I couldn't love you any more than I do
I could save every cent up for a rainy day
But I couldn't love you any more than I do
I could learn every line of Crime and Punishment
But I couldn't love you any more than I do
To swim seven seas would be a breeze, I bet
But I couldn't love you any more than I do
