America will let you go.
I'm never gonna let you go.
And I took it for grand Ted.
And I took it for granted.
But now I didn't
But now I intend
But now I intend to patty cake
But now I intend to dedicate
Gonna hold you very close to man
Gonna hold your body close to mine
Gonna hold your body close tonight
From Thursday on we're gonna be together
Gonna hold your body close to mine
From this day on we're gonna be together
I gave some then but now I, hit a ten
(later)
I loved you then but now I, hit a ten
I gave some then but now I intend
(later)
I loved you then but now I intend
I gave some then, but now I'm Pigpen
I gave some then, but now I intend
I was as strong as I could be.
I was as wrong as I could be.
I'm gonna hold you very close to a man
I'm gonna hold your body close to mine
I'm gonna hold you very close to a mine.
I'm gonna hold your body close to mine.
Misheard: "mine" is a noun. Correct: "mine" is a pronoun.
Never gonna let you go 'cause you're my baby
Football for a million is good, I'm telling you, boy
Now that I've got you back, I'll never let you go
Hold me and hold me good!
(Later)
I'll give you love everyday on a special train
Never gonna let you go 'cause you're my baby
Worth more than a million in gold, I'm telling you, boy
Now that I've got you back, I'll never let you go
Won't be a fool anymore
(Later)
I'll give you love everyday, ooh, what a special way
Never gonna let you go
'Cause you're my baby
Worth more than a million goats
Never gonna let you go
'Cause you're my baby
Worth more than a million in gold
Never gonna let you go
Cos you're my baby
Football and a million goals
Never gonna let you go
Cos you're my baby
Worth more than a million in gold
Oh we're gonna be together
All we're gonna be together
Play pat-a-cake and games to give you more
To dedicate myself to giving more
Some vicar of love
That still shines through
Some flicker of love
That still shines through
This time you can't be sure
This time you can be sure
This time you candy store
This time you can be sure
Work more than a minion and go.
Worth more than a million in gold.
Worth more than a million goats
Worth more than a million in gold
