Yeah
I have never been so much
In love
Before

What a difference
A true love made in my life
So nice
So right

Loving you gave me something new
That I've never felt
Never dreamed of
Somethings changed
No, it's not the
Feeling I had before

Ooh, it's much much more
Love I never knew that it's touch
Could mean so much

What a difference
And when we walked hand in hand
I feel
So real

Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what folks say
Don't they know
They're not there
When you love me
Hold me and say you care

And what we have is much more
Than they could see

What we have is much more
Than they could see

What we have is much more
Than they could see

What we have is much more
Than they could see
...
