Take me as I am
Put your hand in mine now and forever
Darling here I stand, stand before you now
Deep inside I always knew
It was you, you and me
Two hearts drawn together bound by destiny
It was you and you for me
Every road leads to your door
Every step I take for evermore
Just say you love me for the rest of your life
I gotta lot of love and I don't want to let go
Will you still love me for the rest of my life?

'Cause I can't go on
No, I can't go on
I can't go on
If I'm on my own

Take me as I am
Put your heart in mine, stay with me forever
'Cause I am just a man who never understood

I never had a thing to prove
'Till there was you
You and me

Then it all came clear so suddenly
How close to you that I want to be
Just say you love me for the rest of your life
I gotta lot of love and I don't wan to let go
Will you still love me for the rest of my life?

'Cause I can't go on
No, I can't go on
I can't go on
If I'm on my own

Do you believe a love could run so strong?
Do you believe a love could pass you by?

There was no special one for me
I was the lonely one, you see
But then my heart lost all control
Now you're all that I know

Just say you love me for the rest of your life
I gotta lot of love and I don't wan to let go
Will you still love me for the rest of my life?

'Cause I can't go on
No, I can't go on
I can't go on
If I'm on my own
I can't go on
No, I can't go on

'Cause I can't go on (Will you still love me?)
No, I can't go on (Just say you love me)
I can't go on

Without somebody I can call my own
'Cause I can't go on (Will you still love me?)
No, I can't go on (Just say you love me)
Just stay around

'Cause I can't go on (Will you still love me?)
No, I can't go on (Just say you love me)
I can't go on

If you could say your love
'Cause I can't go on (Will you still love me?)
No, I can't go on (Just say you love me)
Stay around, you'll never be alone
