Lyrics

Oh baby don't leave me in the nighttime
Oh baby don't leave me in the day
Just tell me that you love me for a lifetime
And you'll never ever go away
I remember on the day I met you
I was looking for a one night stand
Bet you knew it when you let me catch you
I would never go a-looking again
I believe if you ever left me
I would be a broken hearted man
All the girls in the world couldn't help me
Put my heart back together again
I believe and I don't mean maybe
I believe you were heaven sent
I believe you're the gift God gave me
One hundred and one percent
I believe if you ever left me
I would be a broken hearted man
All the girls in the world couldn't help me
Put my heart back together again
Written by: Don Schlitz, Paul Overstreet
