Producer: Unknown

I've seen your face a thousand times

Have all your stories memorized

I've kissed your lips a million ways

But I still love to have you around

I've held you too many times to count

I thinkI know you inside out

And we're together most days

But I still love to have you around

You're the one I want,

And it's not just phase

You're the one I trust

Our love is the real thing

Don't go away

My love (my love)

I want you to stay

In my life

Don't go away

My lover (my love)

I'm happiest when we spend time

You're a salty water ocean wave

You knock me down

You kiss my face

I know the storms will always come

But I still love to have you around

Heaven knows what will come next

So emotional

You're so complex

A rollercoaster built to crash

But I still love to have you around

You're the one I want,

And it's not just phase

You're the one I trust

Our love is the real thing

Don't go away

My love (my love)

I want you to stay

In my life

Don't go away

My lover (my love)

I'm happiest when we spend time It's only you and I

It's you there when I close my eyes

And you in the morning

I never thought you'd still be mine

Or I'd really need to have you around

Don't go away

My love (my love)

I want you to stay

In my life

Don't go away

My lover (my love)

I need you

You're my love supply

Don't go away

My love (you're my love supply)

I want you to stay

In my life (every day, every night)

Don't go away

My love (you're my love supply)

I need you

You're my love supply
