Cherish (7" Version)

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

I 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

(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

Cherish (give me faith, give me joy)
(My boy, I will always cherish you)
Cherish your strength (you're givin' it)
(You're givin' it to me, boy) I could never forget to
(Keep giving me all your joy)
Cherish the thought (give me faith, give me joy)
(My boy, I will always cherish you)
Cherish the joy
