Oh no, no I don't wanna ever not ever lose you, babe
Because I just love to be around you!
Coz you know I call you my friend!
When you wanna go I just get scared, I don't wanna let you go
I hold on for ever and ever and ever and ever
And I walk around you with my heart in your hand
You can walk around with mine because baby I love you (I love you)
