LYRICS

Some people drink champagne out under the stars
While others drink wine leaning over a bar
But all that I need, dear, to make me feel fine
Is to know that your love will forever be mine

I’d give an ocean of diamonds or a world filled with flowers
To hold you closely for just a few hours
Hear you whisper softly that you love me too
Would change all the dark clouds to the bluest of blue
Instrumental

Well, I don’t drink their champagne, I don’t drink their wine
So if you refuse me, my poor heart will pine
And I’ll be so lonely ’till the day that I die
And as long as I live, dear, you’ll still hear me cry

I’d give an ocean of diamonds or a world filled with flowers
To hold you closely for just a few hours
Hear you whisper softly that you love me too
Would change all the dark clouds to the bluest of blue
Instrumental

Would change all the dark clouds to the bluest of blue
