As recorded by LEE MORSE:
Nightshades are falling and my heart is calling
For eveningtide brings you beside me it seems
I've been so lonely for you and you only
Your sweet caress means happiness and wondrous dreams
I'm in love, so in love, love me
Lips that thrill, say you will love me
Just by the touch of your hand
Let me know you understand, my sweetheart
Every day, every way, oh, love me
And with a kiss whisper this, love me
While I live, let me live where I can be
Close to you, knowing you love me
(Instrumental Break)
I'm in love, so in love, love me
Lips that thrill, say you will love me
Just by the touch of your hand, my dear
Let me know you understand, my sweetheart
Every day, every way, oh, love me
And with a kiss whisper this, love me
While I live, oh, let me live where I can be
Close to you, knowing you love me
