Petula Clark - Cherish Lyrics
(Terry Kirkman)Cherish is the word I use to describeAll the feeling that I have hiding here for you insideYou don't know how many times I've wished that I had told youYou don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold youYou don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold youInto someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish youCherish is the word that more than appliesTo the hope in my heart each time I realizeThat I am not going to be the one to share your dreamsThat I am not going to be the one to share your schemesThat I am not going to be the one to share what seemsTo be the life that you could cherish as much as I cherish yoursOh, I'm beginning to think that man has never foundThe words that could make you want meThat have the right amount of letters, just the right soundThat could make you hear, make you seeThat you are driving me out of my mindIf I just say I need you, oh, then you'd realizeThat I want you and I could never disguiseHow much I love you when every nerve in me criesOut for the moment when you touch my face, my handsAnd gaze into my eyesYeahCherish is the word I use to describeAll the feeling that I have hiding here for you insideYou don't know how many times I've wished that I had told youYou don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold youYou don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold youInto someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish youAnd I doCherish youCherish is the word
