You are the [G]sun, you are my [Bm]life
And your the [C]last thing on my mind before I [D]go to sleep at night
You’re always [G]round when I’m in [Bm]need
When troubles [C]on my mind you put my soul at [D]ease
There is no [C]one in this [G]world, who could [Am]love me like you [G]do
That is the [C]reasons that [G]I wanna spend [Am]forever with [D]you


[G]I’ll be loving [Em]you [C]forever, deep [G]inside my heart you’ll [Em]leave me [C]never
Even if [Bm]you took my [Em]heart and [Bm]tore it [Em]apart, [Eb]I would love you [C]still, [G]forever
(And [Eb]girl I pray you [C]leave me [G]never)


We’ve had our [G]fun and we’ve made [Bm]mistakes
But [C]who’d have guessed along the road we’d [D]learn to give and take
It’s so much [G]more than i could have [Bm]dreamed (I could have dreamed)
Cause [C]you make loving you so [D]we easy for me
There is no [C]one in this [G]world, who could [Am]love me like you [G]do
That is the [C]reason that [G]I wanna spend [Am]forever with [D]you


‘Cause this is the [C]world where [D]lovers [Bm]often go [Em]astray
But if we [C]love each [D]other [Bm]we won’t [G]go that way
[C]So put your [D]doubts aside, do what it [Bm]takes to make it [Em]right
Cos [Am]i love you [G]forever [Am]no one can [G]tear us [C]apart [G]
