Lyrics: Richard Brooks/Arthur Brooks/Jerry Butler
Music: Richard Brooks/Arthur Brooks/Jerry Butler
Your precious love
Means more to me
Than any love could ever be
For when I wanted you
I was so lonely and so blue
For that's, what love will do
And, darling, (I'm so surprised)
Oh, when I first realized
That you, were fooling me
And, darling, - they say
That our love won't grow
But I just want to tell them
That they don't know
For as long
As you're in love with me
Our love will grow wider
Deeper than any sea
And of all the things that I want
In this whole wide world
Is just for you to say
That you'll be my girl
And, Oooh
(wanting you) wanting you
(I'm lonely and blue) I'm so lonely
(for that's, that's what love will do)
