Cherish lyrics

Cherish is the word I use to describe

all the feeling that I have hiding,

here, for you inside.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I had told you.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I could hold you.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I could mold you

into someone who could cherish me

as much as I cherish you.

Perish is the word that more than applies

to the hope in my heart each time

I realize that I am not gonna be the one

to share your dreams,

that I am not gonna be the one

to share your schemes,

that I am not gonna be the one

to share what seems to be the life

that you could cherish

as much as I do yours.

Oh, I'm beginning to think

that man has never found the words

that could make you want me,

that have the right amount of letters,

just the right sound that could make you hear,

make you see that you are drivin' me out of my mind.

Oh, I could say I need you

but then you'd realize that I want you

just like a thousand other guys

who'd say they loved you

with all the rest of their lies

when all they wanted was to touch your face,

your hands and gaze into your eyes.

Cherish is the word I use to describe

all the feeling that I have hiding,

here, for you inside.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I had told you.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I could hold you.

You don't know how many times

I've wished that I could mold

you into someone who could cherish me

as much as I cherish you.

And I do cherish you.

And I do cherish you.

Cherish is the word.
