Just you

Emily Singh 1991 (Mk)



When I’m alone, lying in my bed,
All sorts of thoughts, come into my head,
Like why do I love you? As much as I do;
Then I realise it’s because you are you.
If I had a million pounds, I know what I’d do, I’d buy some special times and spend them with you.
I’d like to tell you something, I hope you won’t offend.
If you weren’t my lover, you’d be my bestest friend.
