Lyrics
I-I, I love you so
I-I’ll, I’ll never let you go,
I-I, I want you to know
That I love you so.
Please, believe what I say
Please, don’t turn me away
Please, let me have my way
Because I love you so
Some nights I can’t sleep
For just of thinkin’ of you
I just lie there and weep
What am I to do
’cause I need you
And I want you
And I adore you
This I want you to know
Because I love you so.
Some nights I can’t sleep
For just of thinkin’ of you
I just lie there and weep
What am I to do
’cause I need you
And I want you
And I adore you
This I want you to know
Because I love you so,
Because I love you so,
Because I love you so.
