I Love a Violin
Petula Clark Lyrics

You're the only one that I rely on
You are the one I can always count on

A shoulder there for me to cry on
You are always there for me when I need emotional support

And the hours alone that I'm without you
When I am away from you, all I can think about is being with you

All I ever do is think about you
You are always on my mind

No one knows that you're so understanding
Other people don't realize how truly understanding you are

Even though my love is so demanding
Despite the fact that my love requires a lot of attention and effort

Every time you look at me
Whenever you gaze at me

Then you'll know we'll both agree
We both understand and acknowledge

That no other love could be
That there is no other love like ours

I couldn't live without your love
My life would be incomplete without your love

Now, I know you're really mine
Now that we are in love, I feel secure in our relationship

I gotta have you all the time
I need you with me constantly

Didn't like you much when I first met you
When we first met, I was not particularly fond of you

But somehow, I couldn't quite forget you
Despite my initial feelings, I could not get you out of my mind

Said you didn't want a friend or lover
You told me that you didn't want either a friend or a romantic partner

That your life was happy with another
You were content with your life and did not feel the need for anyone else

But as time went by, my love grew stronger
As time passed, my feelings of love for you intensified

Knew that I just couldn't wait any longer
I realized that I could not hold my feelings inside any longer

For I couldn't let you go
I could not bear the thought of losing you

And I had to tell you so
I had to confess my love to you

That I loved you, then you'd know
So you would understand the depth of my feelings

Now, the tears are gone and I'm not cryin'
Now that we are together, I no longer cry or feel sad

When you say you love me, you're not lyin'
I trust that your declaration of love is genuine

So, when people want to stare
When others want to look or observe us

I know I don't really care
Their opinions or actions do not affect me

Just as long as you are there
As long as we are together, everything else is unimportant
