가사
[Verse 1]
If I could see your tender smile
And hold you close just a, a little while
I'd want this love to last forever
[Verse 2]
And if one day your trembling hand
Will touch my lips, I'll understand
And want this love to last forever
[Verse 3]
Why, why, why won't you tell me
Tell me the way you feel
Why, why, why, why, why, why
Why won't you hold me
And tell me if this love it real
[Verse 4]
If I look in your eyes and see
That you have shed a tear for me
I'd want this love to last forever
[Verse 5]
But then, maybe I'll get tired of trying
To make you love me too
And then you'll want this love to last forever
[Verse 6]
Why, why, why won't you tell me
Tell me the way you feel
Why, why, why, why, why
Why won't you hold me
And tell me if this love it real
[Verse 7]
If I look in your eyes and see
That you have shed a, a tear for me
I'd want this love to last forever
[Verse 8]
But then, maybe I'll get tired of trying
To make you love me too
And then you'll want this love to last forever
