Ambrosia's song How Much I Feel is a ballad that captures the essence of a love that is slowly drifting away. The artist addresses his lover, who seems to have developed doubts about his faithfulness. He is reassuring her that his feelings and his love for her are genuine and deep. He opens the song with a declaration of not understanding how the rumors of his infidelity started. He then pleads with her to give him a signal if she still wants him to leave. The song's chorus features the artist expressing how much he feels for his lover while also showing how much he needs her touch and how he lives for her love.
As the song progresses, the artist reminisces on a time when they were more in love and all he wanted was her love. Now, he sleeps alone, hoping for the union they used to have. He is willing to give his all and more if only she would love him again like before. He pleads with her to hold his hand, and all would be forgiven.
The third verse shows that the artist has moved on, and he is now married to someone else. However, he still has a lingering feeling towards his lover, which resurfaces when he makes love to his current wife. He then urges her to remember the good times they had together when they were one.
I don't know how this whole business startedI am unsure how these problems between us began
Of you thinkin' that I have been untrueYou believe that I have not been loyal to you
But if you think that we'd be better partedIf you think that our separation would be beneficial
It's gonna hurt me, but I'll break away from youIt will cause me pain, but I will choose to leave you
Well, just give me the sign and I will be gone, yeahIndicate to me that you want me to leave, and I will depart
(That's how much I feel) feel for you, babyI am deeply in love with you
(How much I need) well I need your touchI crave your affection and intimacy
(How much I live) I live for your lovingYour love is essential to my life
I sleep alone, and late at night I'm dreamin'I spend my nights alone, dreaming of happier times
Of the togetherness that seems to be leaving meOur sense of closeness appears to be fading away
I'd give it all and then I'd give some moreI would do anything to save our relationship
If you would only love me like you had beforeIf you could love me as you once did
Well, take hold of my hand and all will be forgiven, yeahIf we can reconcile, I am willing to forgive and forget
So you try (try), try to stay in the middleWe try to remain neutral and not take sides
And then you cry (cry), well you cry just a littleWe experience some emotional pain and cry a bit
Then you both realizeWe both come to understand
Just how foolish you've beenWe recognize how unwise our actions have been
And you try to make amendsWe attempt to repair our relationship
But you're better off as friendsHowever, it may be better for us to remain friends
'Cause that's how much (that's how much)Because our love is so great
How's your life been goin' on?How has your life been lately?
I've got a wife now, years we've been goin' strongI am now married and have been for a while
Oh, no, there's just something that I've got to sayHowever, there is something that I need to tell you
Sometimes when we make loveOccasionally, while being intimate with my wife
I still can see your faceI still picture your face in my mind
Ooh, just try to recallPlease remember
When we were as one, yeahWhen we were together and in love
(That's how much I feel) feel for you, babyI still have strong emotions for you
(How much I need) I need your touchI still desire your affection and intimacy
(How much I live) I live for your lovingMy life would be better with your love
That's how muchThat is the extent of my love for you
