Cherish, cherish
So tired of broken hearts and losing at this game
Before I start this dance
I take a chance in telling you
I want more than just romance
You are my destiny
I can't let go, baby, can't you see?
Cupid, please take your aim at me
Cherish the thought
Of always having you here by my side
Oh baby, I cherish the joy
You keep bringing it into my life
I'm always singing it, cherish your strength
You got the power to make me feel good
And baby, I perish the thought
Of ever leaving, I never would
I was never satisfied with casual encounters
I can't hide my need
For two hearts that bleed
With burning love
That's the way it's got to be
Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way I bet
So don't underestimate my point of view
Cherish the thought
Of always having you here by my side
Oh baby, I cherish the joy
You keep bringing it into my life
I'm always singing it, cherish your strength
You got the power to make me feel good
And baby, I perish the thought
Of ever leaving, I never would
(Who)
(You)
Can't get away, I won't let you
(Who)
(You)
I could never forget to
Cherish is the word I use to remind me of your love
(You're givin' it)
(You're givin' it to me boy)
(Keep giving me all-all-all your joy)
(Give me faith)
(I will always cherish you)
Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way I bet
So don't underestimate my point of view
Cherish the thought
Of always having you here by my side
Oh baby, I cherish the joy
You keep bringing it into my life
I'm always singing it, cherish your strength
You got the power to make me feel good
And baby, I perish the thought
Of ever leaving, I never would
Cherish
Give me faith
Give me joy, my boy
I will always cherish you
Cherish your strength (you're giving it)
(You're giving it to me, boy) I could never forget to
(Keep giving me all your joy) Cherish the thought
(Give me fame, give me joy, my boy, I will always cherish you)
(Cherish the joy)
