Now, if you love me
Honey please don't tease
If I can hold you baby
Let me squeeze
My heart goes 'round and 'round
My heart comes tumblin' down
You leave me breathless

Now I shake all over and
You know why
I'm sure it's love baby
That's no lie
'Cause when you call my name
You know I burn like wood inflamed
You leave me breathless

Oh, baby, mm crazy
You're much too much
 I can't love you enough
It's all right to hold me tight
But when you love me
Love me right

Oh, come on, baby and
Don't be shy
This love was meant for you and I
Wind, rain, sleet or snow
I'm gonna be wherever you go
You have leave me breathless

Ohhh baby, ooh

You're much to much
I can't love you enough
It's alright to hold me tight
