Petula Clark - Cherish lyrics
[Petula Clark - Cherish lyrics]
Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as
Much as I cherish you
Cherish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not going to be
The one to share your dreams
That I am not going to be
The one to share your schemes
That I am not going to be
The one to share what seems
To be the life that you could cherish
As much as I cherish yours
Oh, I'm beginning to think that
Man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters
Just the right sound
That could make you hear, make you see
That you are driving me out of my mind
If I just say I need you, oh
Then you'd realize
That I want you and I could never disguise
How much I love you when
Every nerve in me cries
Out for the moment when you touch my face
My hands and gaze into my eyes
Yeah cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as
Much as I cherish you and I do
Cherish you cherish is the word
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as
Much as I cherish you
Cherish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not going to be
The one to share your dreams
That I am not going to be
The one to share your schemes
That I am not going to be
The one to share what seems
To be the life that you could cherish
As much as I cherish yours
Oh, I'm beginning to think that
Man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters
Just the right sound
That could make you hear, make you see
That you are driving me out of my mind
If I just say I need you, oh
Then you'd realize
That I want you and I could never disguise
How much I love you when
Every nerve in me cries
Out for the moment when you touch my face
My hands and gaze into my eyes
Yeah cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have
Hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've
Wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as
Much as I cherish you and I do
Cherish you cherish is the word
