Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like a candle burning bright
Love is glowing in your eyes
A flame to light our way
That burns brighter everyday
But now I have you
Nobody loves me like you do
[Verse 2]
Like a leaf upon the wind
I could find no place to land
I dream the hours away
And wonder every day
Do dreams come true?
And nobody loves me like you do
[Chorus]
What if I never met you?
Where would I be right now?
Funny how life just falls in place somehow
Ooh, you've touched my heart in places
That I never even knew
'Cause nobody loves me like you do
Mmm
[Verse 3]
I was words without a tune
I was a song still unsung
A poem with no rhyme
A dancer out of time
But now there's you, babe
Nobody loves me like you do
[Chorus]
What if I never met you?
Where would I be right now?
Funny how life just falls in place somehow
Ooh, you've touched my heart in places, ooh
That I never even knew
Nobody loves me, nobody loves me
Nobody loves me, nobody loves
Nobody loves me like you do
Nobody loves me like you do
