Context: He had a light in his gaunt face and his voice and manner were strangely solemn. The were all a bit afraid of him. … "We're mixing our lives together, Maily, and we'll never be able to unmix them again, and we'll never want to." His voice was strong but tender, and he was smiling down at here. "I take you for what you are, and all that you are, and mix you with all of me, and I don't hold back nothing. Nothing! When you're cold, and hungry, and afraid, so am I. When you're happy, so am I. I'm going to stay with you all that I can, take the very best care of you that I can, and love you every minute until I die." He took a deep, slow breath. "Now you say it"
"I will always love you and honor you and serve you, Frenchy, and stay as near to you as I can, and do everything for you, and live for you, and I won't have any life except our life together…" Tears welled out of her eyes but she smiled steadily up without blinking. "I will just love you, Frenchy, all of me there is just loving you forever."

“Why after all these years we've been together
must you behave as if we'd hardly ever spoken,
let alone met?
It seems that you're happy as long as I'm upset.
Oh why, oh why, oh why?
Is it that you don't love me? Oh why?
Have you just had enough of me?
Oh why do I always have cry myself to sleep
seven days a week?”

Gilbert O'Sullivan (1946) Irish singer-songwriter
