Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And that someone is you, please believe me!
You're my starlight when daytime is done
My darling, please darling, believe me!
You're the smile on my lips when I wake,
You're a faith that I'll never forsake!
No one loves with a love that I bring you
You're the smile on my lips when I wake,
You're a faith that I'll never forsake!
No one loves with a love that I bring you
Please believe me, believe me please do!
