Some girls want to play with you Doing things that they really can't do They think that love is a game to play They oughta know that I get my way. They look at you with starry eyes Very soon they all realize Play with fire and your fingers burn I wanna tell them, they never learn. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, oh baby you know There's a special kind of love There's something magic when we touch. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, I just couldn't hide All the love I feel inside I want you with me, by my side, By my side. I never dreamed I would stay with you Just one look, and I knew you were true One more day and I woke up to find I couldn't think, you were on my mind. I can't believe those other guys Hanging round with that look in their eyes They'll never know what I get from you I wanna tell them, I never do. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, oh baby you know There's a special kind of love There's something magic when we touch. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, I just couldn't hide All the love I feel inside I want you with me, by my side, By my side, by my side, by my side. Play with fire and your fingers burn I wanna tell them, they never learn. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, oh baby you know There's a special kind of love There's something magic when we touch. I won't let you go, no no no I'll never let go, I just couldn't hide All the love I feel inside I want you with me, by my side I won't let you go
