Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Baby, don't turn out the light I want to see you look at me Whisper only truth tonight Not just promises and empty fantasies I don't need a bed of roses 'Cause roses wither away All I really need is honesty From someone with a strong heart A gentle hand Who'll take me as I am Baby, I need for you to know Just exactly how I feel Fiery passions come and go I'd trade a million pretty words For one touch that is real I don't need a bed of roses 'Cause roses wither away All I really need is honesty From someone with a strong heart A gentle hand Who'll take me as I am From someone with a strong heart A gentle hand Who'll take me as I am
