Lyrics:

[Words and Music by Ira Kosloff and Maurice Mysels]

Hold me close, hold me tight
Make me thrill with delight
Let me know where I stand from the start
I want you, I need you, I-I love you
With all my heart

Ev'ry time that you're near
All my cares disappear
Darlin', you're all that I'm livin' for
I want you, I need you, I-I love you
More and more

I thought I could live without romance
Until you came to me
But now I know
That I will go on
Lovin' you eternally

Won't you please be my own
Never leave me alone
'Cause I die ev'ry time we're apart
I want you, I need you, I-I love you
With all my heart

Well, I thought I could live without romance
Until you came to me
But now I know
That I-I-I will go
On lovin' you eternally

Won't you please be my own
Never leave me alone
'Cause I die ev'ry time we're apart
I want you, I need you, I-I love you
With all my heart
