I can't hide a love like mine
So whatever you do, don't hide your own from me
The answer is easy when the question is raised
About the way I feel and what you mean to me

Don't cry
I'll try hard
Some way
You'll belong to me
In my arms
Ooh, in my arms

Time is lonely if it isn't with you
Rain is all I see
From in this cloudy room
You are the magic any boy would need
Can you give it to me and help me change my ways

Don't cry
I'll try hard
Some way
You'll belong to me
In my arms
Ooh, in my arms

You're not alone
When I'm gone red is all I see
Stay by the phone when I call
Tell me that you need me

Show me how you feel, pull me through
Please don't keep me lonely
Nobody else would be the same if it isn't you

You're not alone
When I'm gone red is all I see
Stay by the phone when I call
Tell me that you need me

Show me how you feel, pull me through
Please don't keep me lonely
Nobody else would be the same if it isn't you

You're not alone
When I'm gone red is all I see
Stay by the phone when I call
Tell me that you need me

Show me how you feel, pull me through
Please don't keep me lonely
Nobody else would be the same if it isn't, if it isn't you
