Now if you love me please don't tease

If I can hold you then let me squeeze
My heart goes round and round

My love comes a tumblin' down
You leave me aaah breathless ah

Well I shake all over honey you know why

I am sure is love honey let's no no lie
Cause when you call my name

You know I burn like a wooden flame
You leave me aah breathless ah

Ooh baby ooh crazy

Your much is too much

Honey I can't love you enough
It's alright to hold me tight

But when you love me love me right

Oh come on baby now don't be shy

This love was meant for you and I
Wind, rain, sleet or snow

I'm gonna be wherever you go
You have left me aaah breathless ah

Oh keep going

Well ooh baby hum crazy your much is too much

I can't love you enough
Well it's alright to hold me tight

But when you love me love me right

Well come on baby now don't be shy

The love was meant for you and I
Wind, rain, sleet or snow

I'm going be with you wherever you go
You leave me aaah breathless ah
