No one in the world. Ever had a love as sweet as my love. For nowhere in the world. Could there be a boy as true as you love. All my love I give gladly to you. All your love you give gladly to me. Tell me why then, oh why should it be that.
*We go on hurting each other. We go on burting each other. Making each other cry. Hurting each other without ever knowing why.
Closer than the leavers. On a weepin' willow, baby we are. Closer, dear, are we. Than the simple leeters "A" and " B" are. All my life I could love only you. All your life you could love only me. Tell me why then, oh why should it be that.
Repeat*
**Can't we stop hurting each other. Gotta stop hurting each other. Making each other cry. Breaking each other's hear's. Tearing each other apart. ( Reapeat ** to fade)
