Do You Love Me
The Platters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love you, yes I do,
I want you, yes I do,
I know you know it's true
From the way I look at you.

You love me, yes you do,
You need me, I need you;
That's why I'm never blue
Since I first laid eyes on you.

I guess you knew it from the start,
From the day you took my heart,
You're the one boy I'll always admire.
Darling, you're my guiding star,
I must be where you are,
You set my soul on fire!

I miss you, yes I do,
Must hug and kiss you too,
I'm yours my whole life through!
I love you, yes I do.

I guess you knew it from the start,
From the day you took my heart,
You're the one boy I'll always admire.
Darling, you're my guiding star,
I must be where you are,
You set my soul on fire!

I miss you, yes I do,
Must hug and kiss you too,




I'm yours my whole life through!
I love you, yes I do.

Only you can make all this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Oh, only you can do make all this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you
Oh oh, only you can do make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you
