I found a love for me

Darling, just dive right in
              D
And follow my lead
                G           Em
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet

waiting for me

[Pre-chorus 1]
                                 G
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
            Em
Not knowing what it was
           C                G     D
I will not give you up this time
              G
Darling, just kiss me slow,
              Em
your heart is all I own
            C
And in your eyes,
               D
you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark

with you between my arms

Barefoot on the grass,
      D                Em
we're listenin' to our favorite song

I'll share her home

to carry children of our own
