Lyrics

[Intro]
| C | - |

[Verse 1]
C
Your precious love
Am
  Means more to me
F G
  Than any love,
         C
than any love could ever be

[Verse 2]
         C
For when I wanted you
Am
  I was so lonely, and so blue
F
 That's what love,
G                        C
 that's what love really made me do

[Verse 3]
       C
And darling, oh they keep saying
     Am
That our love won't grow now
          F
But honey I wanna tell them
     G
And I just wanna show them
           C
How in the world do they know that?

[Verse 4]
        C
If only all, all night long
               Am
For as long as you've been in love with me now
           F
I know our love will grow wider
       G
And so deeper
         C              A
Than any, any other seen

[Verse 5]
D
Of all the things I want now
Bm
  In this whole wide world is just
       G                      A
For you to say, for you to say
              D
That you will be my, my girl now
                      D
And I promise I won't leave you

[Verse 6]
                    Bm
I just keep wanting you all night,
all night
            G
I'm wanting you, nobody but you now,
A               D
 nobody but you now
Ooh, I wanna tell you just one more time

[Verse 7]
         D
For your precious love, now
Oh my
                                 Bm
It means everything in the world to me
Everything in the world to me
And I'm just so wilding
G                A                D
 Just to have you right home with me
