Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All I need is someone like you
My dearest darling, please love me too
Within my heart, I pray your answer's "yes"
I'll make your life full of happiness
[Chorus]
Whenever you need me, I'll be there by your side
Oh, I pledge my love to you with God as our guide
Oh, nothing, nothing, nothing in this world can keep us apart
Ooh, my dearest darling, I offer you my heart
[Chorus]
Oh yeah, whenever you need me, oh, I'll be there by your side
I pledge my love to you with God as our guide
Oh, nothing, nothing, nothing in this world can keep us apart
Ooh, my dearest darling, I'm offering you my heart
[Outro]
Ooh, my dearest darling
