[Verse 1]
Life is always changing
Constant rearranging
But nothing changes with you
You never do
I go to different places
See a million faces, but
None as fine as you
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I have the honor
To love someone kind and true
I thank my lucky stars
For bringing me here to you
[Chorus]
Like water flows down from a hill
And yellow grows on daffodils
I'm gonna learn to love you better
To the letter, baby
Like morning dew on southern pines
And honey that bees leave behind
I'm gonna love you sweet to the letter
You'll find no better
[Post-Chorus]
Baby, baby, love me so
Oh, won't you love me so?
[Verse 2]
The look that's in your eyes
Gives me my courage
My strength I draw from you
You know I do, babe
The depth inside your soul
Fills my well of fantasies
I fill my cup with you
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I have the honor
To love someone kind and true
I thank my lucky stars
For bringing me here to you
[Chorus]
Like water flows down from a hill
And yellow grows on daffodils
I'm gonna learn to love you better, baby
To the letter
Like morning dew on southern pines
Honey that bees leave behind
Gotta love you sweet to the letter
You'll find no better
[Post-Chorus]
Babe, you love me so
Ooh, I know you love me
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I got the honor
To love someone kind and true
Thank my lucky stars
For bringing me to you
[Chorus]
Like water flows down from a hill
Yellow grows on daffodils
I'm gonna learn to love you better
To the letter
Like morning dew on southern pines
Honey that bees leave behind
Gotta love you sweet to the letter
[Outro]
Oh, how you love you me so
Baby, babe, you love me so
