Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No other face could take you off my mind
You're so refined
You're much too kind
I have to warn you I'm never gonna set you free
'Cause I was born to
Love you for eternity
[Chorus]
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes, dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cause I'll never be far away
[Verse 2]
On every breeze I seem to hear your name
My heart's aflame
I feel the same
I'd fall apart, dear, if you let the feelin' end
Don't break a heart, dear, nobody else could mend
[Chorus]
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes, dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cause I'll never be far away
[Chorus]
Whenever you're away from me
Wherever you go
You're never far away from me
I want you to know
I only have to close my eyes, dear
And suddenly I'm where you are
You better never stray
'Cause I'll never be far away
[Outro]
You better never stray 'cause I'll never be far away
