Oh my mind is made up about you Now and always Though the seasons come and they go Nothing will ever change Well I took a little chance And I laid my heart down Thought you'd be the one Who would always stick around I took a little time Though I knew it would be That we had a date with destiny Well out of the darkness (oh and I know) And out of the long black night (yes I know) You have given me heart, yes And you showed me the light (and I know) And I do, I do I love you for what you are Well this heart of mine, I know it so well There are so many strange stories That I could tell Many is the time, I went out on a limb You reached out for me baby And you brought me back again A lot of stormy nights I've seen many a full moon, but darling This is love in the afternoon Well out of the darkness (oh and I know) And out of the long black night (yes I know) You have given me heart, yes And you showed me the light (and I know) And I do, I do I love you for what you are So out of the darkness (oh and I know) And out of the long black night (yes I know) You have given me heart, yes And you showed me the light (I know) And I do, I do I love you for what you are Yes, I love you for what you are I love you for what you are I do love you for what you are Yes I do love you for what you are I do love you for what you are Yes I do love you for what you are
