|
| I’d work for you, I’d even slave for you
|
| I’d be a beggar or a knave for you (whatever that is)
|
| And if that isn’t love, it’ll have to do Until the real thing comes along
|
| I’d gladly move the earth for you
|
| To prove my love, dear, and its worth for you
|
| If that isn’t love, it will have to do (gotta do)
|
| Until the real thing comes along
|
| With all the words, dear, at my command
|
| I just can’t make you understand
|
| I’ll always love you, darling, come what may
|
| My heart is yours, what more can I say?
|
| (You want me to rob a bank? Well I won’t do it)
|
| I’d sigh for you, yes, I’d even cry for you, yes
|
| I’d tear the stars down from the skies for you
|
| If that isn’t love, well skip it, it’ll have to do Until the real thing comes along
|
| Listen baby
|
| I’d even sigh for you, I’m 'bout ready to cry for you
|
| I’d tear the stars down from the skies for you
|
| If that isn’t love, it’ll have to do, baby, yes
|
| Until the real thing comes along
|
| (Here's the real thing, baby) |
