If you want my love
You've only got to take it
And if you get my heart
Do anything but break it

And if you wanna know the truth
I think about you only
And whatever I'm doin'
You're never out of my mind

Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

There's a way you've got
Something in the mixture
As the night goes on
You could become a fixture

Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

Oh I, I, I believe
Oh I, I, I believe

If you want my love
You've only got to take it
And if you get my heart
Do anything but break it

Oh I believe in your sweet love
Oh I believe in your sweet love

I believe in your sweet love
I, I, I believe, oh I, I, I believe
Oh I believe, I believe in your sweet lovin'
I, I, I believe

Bonnie Tyler

Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins on 8 June 1951) is a Welsh singer. Her first hit single, "Lost In France", reached the UK Top 10 in 1976 and she was nominated for Best British Female Newcomer at the 1977 Brit Awards. Soon after, Tyler underwent an operation to remove nodules from her vocal cords which left her with a distinctively husky voice. However, this did not affect her career and her 1977 single "It's a Heartache" became a hit in both Europe and North America. more »
