Lyrics
Your precious love means more to me
Than any love could ever be
For when I wanted you
I was so lonely and so blue
For that's what love will do
And darling, I'm (I'm so surprised)
Oh, when I fail to realize (I realize)
That you were fooling me
And darling
They say that our love won't grow
But I just want to tell them
That they don't know
For as long as you're in love with me
Our love will grow wider
Deeper than any sea
And of all the things that I want
In this whole wide world
Is just for you to say that you'll be my girl
And, ooh (wanting you, oh)
Wanting you (I'm lonely and blue)
I'm so lonely (that's what love will do)
Writer(s): Jerry Butler, Arthur H. Brooks, Richard A. Brooks
