Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You're always in my heart from early in the mornin' 'till it's dark

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

When I wake up in the mornin' and I see you there

I always whisper a little prayer

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

[Verse 2]

I gotta know that you love me and that you want me

And that you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

And I gotta feel your arms around me and that you need me

And you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

[Verse 3]

If my times are bringin' me down, you're the only one that I want around

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

And if I'm all strung out, you're the only one who can straighten me out

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

[Verse 4]

I gotta know that you love me and that you want me

And that you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

And I gotta feel your arms around me and that you need me

And you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

[Verse 5]

I gotta know that you love me and that you want me

And that you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

And I gotta feel your arms around me and that you need me

And you'll always be there

I gotta know that you care

[Verse 6]

You're always in my heart from early in the mornin' 'till it's dark

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day

I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile every day
