Verse 1:
[1: 2-4: Dm9]
I could love you more and more each day for a million years
And I'd sit around all day just crying happy tears
Chorus:
To [2: But] dance and sing my life away (life away)
And laughing with you, my darling, softly to me
[1: ]
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Verse 2:
Orange, sugar, chocolate, hot cinnamon and lovely things and you
And darling, you know there was really nothing else that I could do
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
And my darling you will never know how elegant
Amaj7 [x06650]
you'll always be to me
And my darling I was so in love it was evident for anyone
Verse 3:
To see, and I suppose they already do
And how come so suddenly everything depends on you
[repeat chorus]
[guitar solo over bridge chords]
Verse 4:
And if I kissed you once I'd probably do it again
But then that's not so inconceivable, my friend
