Lyrics

My days have grown so lonely

For you I cry, for you dear only

Why haven't you seen it

I'm all for you body and soul

I spend my days in longing

You know it's you that I am longing

I tell you I mean it

I'm all for you body and soul

I can't believe it

It's hard to conceive it

That you'd throw away romance

Are you pretending

It looks like the ending

Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear

My life a wreck you're making

You know I'm yours for just the taking

Oh I tell you I mean it

I'm all for you body and soul

My days have grown so lonely

For you I cry, for you dear only

Oh why haven't you seen it

I'm all for you body and soul

I spend my days in longing

And that's for you that I am longing

I tell you I mean it

I'm all for you body and soul

I can't believe it

It's hard to conceive it

That you'd throw away romance

Are you pretending

It looks like the ending

Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear

My life a hell you're making

You know I'm yours for just the taking

I tell you I mean it

I'm all for you body and soul
