Lyrics: “Love Me Tender”
Love me tender,
love me sweet,
never let me go.
You have made my life complete,
and I love you so.
Love me tender,
love me true,
all my dreams fulfilled.
For my darlin’ I love you,
and I always will.
Love me tender,
love me long,
take me to your heart.
For it’s there that I belong,
and we’ll never part.
Love me tender,
love me dear,
tell me you are mine.
I’ll be yours through all the years,
till the end of time.
(When at last my dreams come true
Darling this I know
Happiness will follow you
Everywhere you go).
