Say now you talk about the things I do But baby I, I'll try n explain the reasons why Cause I've been thinking about The things we said late last night When every word I said just didn't come out right And you were so afraid that I'd found someone new But darlin well, there's no need For what we're going through because You and I've been in love too long To worry about tomorrow Here's a place where we both belong I know you're the only woman that I'm dreaming of You're the only woman that I really love Baby see what a foolish heart has done for me Darling why would you break my heart and make me cry Well now you can't go back and change the way things are And all this foolish talk won't take us very far And so I hope you're listening cause I'm telling you About the way I feel and what I'm going through because You and I've been in love too long To worry about tomorrow Here's a place where we both belong I know you're the only woman that I'm dreaming of I say you're the only woman that I really love Don't speak, shhh When the pain of love surrounds you And the world may be unkind I'll put my loving arms around you And take you far from this place and time because You and I've been in love too long To worry about tomorrow Here's a place where we both belong I know you're the only woman I've been dreaming of Baby you're the only woman that I really love You're the only woman I know you're the only woman Well now you're the only woman
