I heard lightning don't strike twice Could you be the man of my dreams? Oh, nothing like with your hand on my thigh But my heart doesn't mind I see you on every corner, twist and I turn Never learn, sleep, don't wanna tell you Hold me again, I don't care where you been Just wanna know where I stand Dearly beloved, if I had my way You'd be here to stay Oh, believe me, beloved, if I had my way You'd be here to stay Sometimes I stare when I don't mean to Do you realise? You never seem to open your eyes When I'm here and I'm trying You don't know what it's like Dearly beloved, if I had my way You'd be here to stay Oh, believe, believe me, beloved, if I had my way You would have had yours in the first place These little notes get sweeter Sweeter than most I see you reaching for hope You hear me say Dearly beloved, if I had my way You'd be here, you'd be here to stay Oh, believe me, beloved
