I'll give you the best I can give you, baby That's all I can give We'll live it the best we can live it, baby As long as we live What kind of love never turns you down What kind of love lifts you off the ground Turns your life around What kind of love makes you go out in the wind And the driving rain What kind of love runs through your heart with A pleasure so close to pain What kind of love Only this love that I have I'll show you the best I can show you, baby That's all I can show you I'll know you the best I can know you baby As long as I know you What kind of love never turns away What kind of love never makes you pay Hears you when you pray What kind of love makes you go out in the wind And the driving rain What kind of love runs through your heart with A pleasure so close to pain What kind of love Only this love that I have This love I know is all I have This love I have is all I know So I won't let go What kind of love makes you go out in the wind And the driving rain What kind of love runs through your heart with A pleasure so close to pain What kind of love only this love that I have What kind of love only this love that I have
