Be my love
For no one else can end this yearning
This need that you and you alone createJust fill my arms
The way you’ve filled my dreams
The dreams that you inspire
With every sweet desireBe my love
And with your kisses set me burning
One kiss is all I need to seal my fateAnd hand in hand
We’ll find love’s promised land
There’ll be no one but you for me eternally
If you will be my loveBe my love
For no one else can end this yearning
This need that you and you alone createJust fill my arms
