Lyrics

if you only let me hold your hand
and if you say that I'm your lover man
if you let me walk by your side
I wanna protect and to be your guide

I know
I know
I know 
Oh, I know
I'll always be in love with you

if you'd only say you'd wear my ring
and say that I'm your everything
if you let me let me be your steady date
now if you love me don't hesitate

I know
I know
I know 
there's one thing
I'll always be in love with you

baby, I wanna hold you
baby, I wanna kiss you
think of all the fun we'll have
while walking arm in arm

if you'll only let me hold your hand
and if you say that I'm your lover man
if you let me walk by your side
I wanna protect and to be your guide

I know
I know
I know 
yes, I know
I'll always be in love with you

baby, I wanna hold you
baby baby I wanna kiss you
I know
I know
I know 
yes, I know
I'll always be in love with you
