Jerome Prister Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love so true (The only thing I need from you)

Girl... I need you in my life
Want you for my wife
Need your love so true

Girl... for all the s___e and time
You're always on my mind
There's no one else but you

So... Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love so true (The only thing I need from you)

You... have to understand
That I need a man
Who will give his soul to me Yeah!...

Your... desires must be true
Love so fresh and new
Then maybe love can be
Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love so true (The only thing I need from you)

Girl... your beauty's like the stars
I knew just where you are
Deep inside my heart

Girl... we could live forever
If we stay together
And never ever part

So... Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love so true (The only thing I need from you)
Say you'll be...

Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love so true (The only thing I need from you)

Say you'll be (Right here, right by my side)
Eternally (Through all the days and all the nights)
Say you'll do (Anything I want you to)
A love... (The only thing I need from you)

Say that you will be
I'll be yours




Say you'll be my baby
I'll be your baby
