Always and forever I'll love just you
Just promise me darling your love in return
Make this fire in my soul forever burn
Forever my darling our love will be true
Always and forever I'll love just you
Just promise me darling your love in return

Eternally grateful to a guy called Nick Moss, Arborfield Garrison May 1974 intake, for introducing me to this album and then giving me it. Not only do I still have the vinyl L.P. but I also bought the C.D. Cheers Nick wherever you are.
