The look of love

Is in your eyes

A look the time, can't disguise

The look of love

It's saying so much more than

Just words could ever say

And when my heart has hurt

Well, it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you

Feel my arms around you

How long I have waited

Waited just to love you

Now that I have found you

You've got that look of love

It's on your face

A look that time can't erase

You're mine tonight

Let this be just the start of

So many nights like this

Let's take what lover's found

And then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you

Feel my arms around you

How long I have waited

Waited just to love you

Now that I have found you

Don't ever go, don't ever go

Don't ever go, don't ever go

Don't ever go
