Intro

 If you love me, like you tell me

 Please be careful with my heart

 You can take it, just don't break it

 Or my world will fall apart

 You are my first romance

 And I'm willing to take a chance

 That till life is through I'll still be loving you

 I will be true to you

 Just a promise from you will do

 From the very start Please be careful with my heart

 I love you and you know I do

 There'll be no one else for me

 Promise I'll be always true For the world and all to see

 Love has heard some lies softly spoken

 And I have had my heart badly broken

I've been burned and I've been hurt before

 So I know just how you feel

  – -

Trust my love is real for you

 I'll be gentle with your heart

 I'll caress it like the morning dew

 I'll be right beside you forever

 I wont let our world fall apart

 From the very start
