[drum fill]

Chorus 1

  It's the lovin' things you do

  That make me grow so close to you

  Gonna want you my whole life through

  For the lovin' things, baby, that you do

* Intro, 3, 5, 6: Ab/C

Chorus 2

It's the lovin' things you say

That give me comfort every day

By you're side I'm gonna stay

To hear the lovin' things, baby, that you say

Verse 1

  Since that day our love began

  I've become a new and happy man

  I can hold my head up high

  When you are near I touch the sky

[w/bass, organ, sand blocks]:

  With your soft and sweet caress

  You brought me such tenderness

[band re-enters]:

  To think I was once forsaken

  With your kiss I've been awakened

[repeat chorus 1]

Verse 2

[first four lines instrumental]

With your soft and sweet caress

You brought me such tenderness

With a smile from your young face

You gave me back my inspiration

Chorus 3

It's the lovin' things we share

That assures me how you care

Our friends call us a perfect pair

For the lovin' things, baby, that we share

[repeat chorus 1, 2X]
