Lyrics
- Ever since I first saw you
I’ve been mighty strong for you
I’ve been wondering if you’ll do
Just a little thing I want you to
(and that is)
Refrain
Take me into your heart
Make me yours from the start
My heart’s delighted that’s true
Excited all over you
And I’ve decided that we never should part
(Listen to my plea and)
Take me in your embrace
Take me and leave no trace
We’ll both go right away
In loveland hide away
If you will take me into your heart
- I was very lonesome dear
Everything was dark and drear
Since the day that you came here
You have made the world seem
Bright and clear (and now please)
