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 gonna be the one to share your dreams
 That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes
 That I am not gonna be the one to share what
 Seems to be the life that you could
 Cherish as much as I do 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 drivin' me out of my mind
 
 Oh, I could say I need you but then you'd realize
 That I want you just like a thousand other girls
 Who'd say they loved you With all the rest of their lies
 When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands
 And gaze into your eyes
 ♪
 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
 And I do cherish you
 Cherish is the word
