Don't take this heaven from one if you must cling to someone
Now and forever let it be me
Each time we meet love I find complete love
(Without your sweet sweet love what would life be)
So never leave me lonely tell me you love me only and that you'll always let it be me
So never leave me lonely tell me you love me only and that you'll always let it be me
