-George Benson
If I had to live my life without you near me
The days would be empty
The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever oh so clearly
I might have in love before
But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young and we both know
They'll take us where we want to go
Hold me now touch me now
I don't want to live without you
Nothing's gona change my love for you
You oughta know by now how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of
I'll never ask for more than your love
Nothing's gona change my love for you
You oughta know by now much I love you
The world may change my whole life through
But nothing's gonna change my love for you
If the road ahead is not so easy
Our love will lead the way for us
Like a guiding star
I'll be there(for you)if you should need me
You don't have to change a thing
I love you just the way you are
So come with me and share the view
I'll help you see forever too
Hold me now touch me now
Idon't want to live without you
