Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The look of love
Is in your eyes
A look your smile
Can't disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more
Than these words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well
It takes my breath away
[Verse 2]
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
[Verse 3]
You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine, tonight
Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Let's take a lovers' vow
And seal it with a kiss
[Verse 4]
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to hold you
Now that I have found you
Don't ever go
I love you so
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
Written by: Burt Bacharach, Hal David
