Billie's Bounce (Take 4) Lyrics
I've overlooked so many things
Through the years
Through my tears
Through the years
Then I went and opened my eyes.You were my idea...
Heaven with open arms.Now that I've found myself this once,
I think that it is best
We build our little nest
Hear the rest, yes it's bestI won't stop and think of the things
I really couldn't do until I met you.
Please baby listen to my plea
Understand my love and you will find it true, Love.I want you to know just how I feel
Right from the start
and hope that you feel the same.I've never had the slighest doubt
...and hope I never will,
I pray our love will blossom with each thrill
...I hope you feel the same.Please baby don't let me linger...
Open up your soul when you open up your arms for me alone
...then I know I'll find a way to make it plain...I love you.I think of you, Dear
You're the only one I've wanted since I have met you
and I need you every moment, Mama
Stay by my side.I know we're meant to find true love, Dear
I vow you'll never leave me once I have you.
I'll never know the song the bluebird sings
...when he's lonely.Well...
It'll have to be, can't you see
...I did used to wonder,
You can love me,
Tell me...do ya?For it is true, Dear
...there's no other but ya.
Then I went and said it all over again,
the way you made me love you it's a sin
...but what can I do?
