I Dream Love
The Ace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I only know that I love you-ou
[Verse 1]
They tell me that I'm not your one-and-only
I wouldn't know, I only know I love you
They tell me you may leave me sad and lonely
It may be so, I only know I love you
(So break my heart or take my heart forever)
(It still will be forever yours alone)
[Verse 2]
They tell me to get ready to forget you
That's what they say, I only know I love you
They tell me I'll be sorry that I met you
But, come what may, I only know I love you
[Chorus]
I'm not the one to look into the future
I don't know what your heart may have in view
My darling, I only know that I love you
{Italian lyrics for one verse}
[Chorus]
My darling (darling), I only know that I love you
