The Lyrics…
I think about you
When I don’t want to
Dream about your smiling face
I keep trying not to love you
But I love you anyway
We should be together, together
Should be walking side by side
We should be together, together
Keeping each other satisfied
I have thought to come to know you
I’ve come to need your company
What will I do if I can’t have you
If I can’t have you
What will I do
We should be together, together
Should be walking side by side
We should be together, together
Keeping each other satisfied
