[verse 1]
Don't be so afraid, love won’t hurt you
Just make sure that you find someone who's true
[Chorus]
Can't you see we could be lovers instantly
If you just let it be
You’ve never known love before; what a lonely way to be
[verse 2]
I can see in your eyes that you're not sure
I'll make you realize I'm the one for you
[Chorus]
Can't you see we could be lovers instantly
If you just let it be
You've never known love before; what a lonely way to be
[bridge]
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me some time; I'll make up your mind)
(try my love)
Try my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me a night; I'll make you feel right)
(about my love)
About my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me some time; I’ll make up your mind)
(try my love)
Try my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me a night; I’ll make you feel right)
(about my love)
[verse 3]
Love is a burning fire, you'll never be cold
Um, baby, love is a shining star to show you the way home
[Chorus]
Can’t you see we could be lovers instantly
If you just let it be
You've never known love before; what a lonely way to be
[outro]
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me some time; I'll make up your mind)
(try my love)
Try my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me a night; I'll make you feel right)
(about my love)
About my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me some time; I’ll make up your mind)
(try my love)
Try my love
(a lonely way to be)
(just give me a night; I'll make you feel right)
(about my love)
