I can't fool myself I don't want nobody else to ever love me You are my shining star my guiding light my love fantasy There's not a minute, hour, day or night that I don't love you You're at the top of my list 'cause I'm always thinking of ya I still remember in the days when I was scared to touch you How I spent my day dreamin' plannin' how to say "I love you" You must have known that I had feelings deep enough to swim in That's when you opened up your heart and you told me to come in Oh my love, a thousand kisses from you Is never too much, I just don't wanna stop Oh my love, a million days in your arms Is never too much, I just don't wanna stop Never too much, never too much Never too much, never too much Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started I called you up but you weren't there and I was broken hearted Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demandin' Opened the door up and to my surprise there you were standin' Who needs to go to work to hustle for another dollar? I'd rather be with you 'cause you make my heart scream and holler Love is a gamble and I'm so glad that I am winnin' We've come a long way and yet this is only the beginning Oh my love, a thousand kisses from you Is never too much (never too much, never too much, never too much) I just don't wanna stop Oh my love, a million days in your arms Is never too much (never too much, never too much, never too much) And I just don't wanna stop Oh my love, a thousand kisses from you is never (Never too much, never too much, never too much) never I just don't wanna stop A million days in your arms is never too much
