Lyrics
Love you all the way
From the moment you rang the door
I knew this wouldn't last forever
This shelter I give
is all I`ll ever get
Her pretty face and ways
Is something I cannot manage
But your foolish heart
will get hurt
Chorus
I will love you all the way
The pain of being your friend
Is less than the pain of your absence
I will love you all the way
Most pigeons return to their home they say
Let me get you a drink
We will talk it over
Cleaning up your mess
Is what I do best
You can sleep on the couch
The lamp light shines on your face
Now that you`re her with me
I should wipe my tears away
Chorus
Instrumental
Bridge
Choir/harmony: Don`t hang on to this love!
Voice: But this is all I got!
Choir/harmony: Don`t hang on to this love!
Voice: When will this torture stop?
Chorus
