Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
When there ain't no light But the night is bright And it's cold outside I'm burning The feeling inside That I just can't hide Now it's for you I'm yearning I ain't asking much Just a simple touch of you But you won't have me I sit right here And my only fear is you And all you can be At the third stroke It will be five thirty I'm a simple man And a simple man Can't get to you with feeling Even if I might Then it wouldn't be right To you love has no meaning
