Lyrics
We live our lives from day to day.
The time has past and slipped away.
See all these changes everywhere,
but you give me what I need.
There's no one who can take your place,
nobody else can fill this space.
The time we knew is fading fast, the die is cast and now it seems.
Like we're living in a dream.
I will love you tenderly, you're everything to me, can't you see?
Still I want you.
Girl, I want you.
Still I want you.
I only want you, don't feel bad.
You've made me laugh and made me cry,
but that's okay because you're mine.
Through all these moments that we shared, I'd give you anything.
What really matters is your smile.
It makes these troubled times worthwhile.
We'll soon be in our rocking chairs, but I don't care because it seems,
like we're living in a dream.
I will love you tenderly, you're everything to me, can't you see?
Still I want you
Girl I want you
Still I want you
I only want you, don't feel bad.
