Lyrics
Lyrics & Music By Pete Dowan (SOCAN)
REALLY LOVE YOU
1st Verse:
I sing much better, when I'm with you
When we're together, I feel brand new.
You're the only relief that I have from the world.
You are the wind for the sail I've unfurled.
You're everything I've ever wanted
Everything I'll ever need.
CHORUS:
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I LOVE YOU
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I DO
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I LOVE YOU
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I DO
2nd Verse:
You warm the sunlight, that shines on me
And when I've done right, you let me see
Every star in your eyes, every word in your heart
You are the song I've been meaning to start
You're everything I've ever wanted
Everything I'll ever need.
CHORUS:.. I REALLY LOVE....... BABY I DO
BRIDGE:
And you know it... in your eyes you show it
I'm gonna say it till the end... (modulation)
CHORUS:
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I LOVE YOU
I REALLY LOVE YOU, BABY I DO [yes I do yes I really love you]
(repeat... and fade)
