[Verse 1]
With all my heart, I love you, baby
Stay with me, and you will see
My arms will hold you, baby
Never leave 'cause I believe
[Chorus]
I'm in love, sweet love
Hear me calling out your name—I feel no shame
I'm in love, sweet love
Don't you ever go away, it'll always be this way
[Verse 2]
Your heart has called me closer to you
I will be all that you need
Just trust in what we're feeling
Never leave 'cause, baby, I believe
[Chorus]
In this love, sweet love
Hear me calling out your name—I feel no shame
I'm in love, sweet love;
Don't you ever go away, it'll always be this way
[Bridge]
There's no stronger love in this world—oh, baby, no
You're my man, I'm your girl—I'll never go
Wait and see, can't be wrong
Don't you know this is where you belong?
[Verse 3]
How sweet this dream, how lovely baby
Stay right here, never fear
I will be all that you need
Never leave 'cause, baby, I believe
[Chorus]
In this love, sweet love
Hear me calling out your name—I feel no shame
I'm in love, sweet love
Don't you ever go away, it'll always be this way

(Sweet love) Your love
Oh, baby, no sweeter love

Oh, no, no, no, no-no, no, no, no
(Sweet love) Don't nobody know
Don't nobody know how sweet it is
Ah, how sweet it is

Just love me sweetly, baby

Don't nobody know
