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
