Lyrics
Dearest, though you're the nearest to my heart
Please don't ever, um yeah, ever say we'll part
You scold, and you are so bold
Yes together, um yeah, our love will grow old
Um yeah, our love will grow old
You may be a million miles away
Please believe me, um yeah, when you hear me say
"I love you, I love you"
Come home, keep me from these sleepless nights
Try my love again, um yeah
I'm gonna treat you right
Um yeah, I'm gonna treat you right (ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
