It's the lovin' things you do

Gonna want you my whole life through
For the lovin' things, baby, that you do

Chorus 2
It's the lovin' things you say
That give me comfort every day
By you're side I'm gonna stay
To hear the lovin' things, baby, that you say
Verse 1
Since that day our love began
I've become a new and happy man
I can hold my head up high
When you are near I touch the sky
[w/bass, organ, sand blocks]:
With your soft and sweet caress
You brought me such tenderness
[band re-enters]:
To think I was once forsaken
With your kiss I've been awakened
[repeat chorus 1]
Verse 2
[first four lines instrumental]
With your soft and sweet caress
You brought me such tenderness
With a smile from your young face
You gave me back my inspiration
Chorus 3
It's the lovin' things we share
That assures me how you care
Our friends call us a perfect pair
For the lovin' things, baby, that we share
