LYRICS

( Brook & Butler )
Your precious love, now
Me moan to me
They didn't love, they didn't love would ever be, me
For when i wanted you, oh now
I was so lonely and so blue
That's what love, that's what love really made me do

And darling, oh, they keep saying that our love will go, now
But honey i wanna tell them
And i just wanna show them
How in the world do they know, now

It's very long, oh now, oh now
For as long as you make love with me, now
I know our love will grow wider
And so deeper than any any ever seen, now

Of all, of all the things that i want, now
In this whole wide world is just
For you to say, for you to say
That you'll be my my girl, now, now

And i'm calling, i wanting you
I just keep wanting you, now, oh now
I'm wanting you, now
Nobody but you, now
Nobody but you, now

Oh, i just wanna tell you just one more time
For your precious love, now, oh my
It means everything in the world to me
Everything in the world to me
And i'm just so wild, now
Just to have you
Right on with me,
Oh now, now, now
