XII. Lyric

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuXIpf1yUP

I thought I knew.

I thought I knew the jolt of electricity until your touch set me alight.

I thought I knew what fire was until you brought sparks into my life and lit me aflame.

I thought I knew what warmth was until you took me in your arms,

let me hear your heartbeat, my cheek against your chest.

If you only knew.

If you only knew how much I love you.

Oh, if you only knew what you mean to me.

If you only knew how much I want to see you happy.

Oh, if you only knew what I would do for you.

If you only knew the way I see you.

If you only knew how long I would have waited to hear your voice,

If you only knew how I love to feel your warmth.

Oh, if you only knew how much I want you.

If you only knew how much I love you.

If you only knew.

If you only knew how much I need you.

If you only knew how you unmade me.

If you only knew that I am thinking of you.

If you only knew what I want to say to you.

If you only knew—what would you do?

There is no one like you.

No one lifts my spirits the way you do.

No one makes me smile the way you do.

No one makes me giddy like you do.

No one moves me the way you do.

No one stirs my soul the way you do.

No one makes me calm the way you do.

No one makes me care the way you do.

No one makes me happy the way you do.

No one makes me feel the way you do.

I offer myself,

wholly yours.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcc05Y9lsu

You are someone I adore.

You are my love,

my faithful one.

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcuDGIqUOS

I will always be loyal to you.

I will always be pure.

You are the only one I want.

Dance with me all night, babe.

I want to hold you close, babe, so tight.

I want to hold you all the time.

I want to let you know, babe, how much I need you.

I want to show you all the time.

I want to make you mine, babe.

I want to love you right,

Let me love you tonight, babe,

forevermore.
