A little love that slowly grows and grows
Not one that comes and goes
That's all I want from you
A sunny day with bolts up to the sky

A kiss and no goodbye
That's all I want from you
Don't let me down, Oh show me that you care
Remember when you give, You also get your share

Don't let me down, I have no time to waste
Tomorrow might not come, When dreamers dream too late
A little love that slowly grows and grows
Not one that comes and goes

That's all I want from you
Music interlude
Don't let me down, Oh show me that you care
Remember when you give, You also get your share

Don't let me down, I have no time to waste
Tomorrow might not come, When dreamers dream too late

[Repeat first verse]

That's all I want from you
