Lyrics
I have never been so much
In love before
What a difference, a true love made in my life
So nice
So right
Loving you gave me something new
That I never felt, never dreamed of
Something's changed
No, it's not the feeling I had before
Oh, it's much, much more
Love
I never knew that a touch, hmm
Could mean so much, mm, hmm, mm
What a difference
And when we walk hand in hand
I feel so real
Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what folks say, don't they know
They're not there when you love me
Hold me and say you care
And what we have is much more than they could see
(Have, have, ever, ever so much more, yeah)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, yeah, ever have so much more, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, ever, ever, ever so much, so much more, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, I don't ever lose myself, I don't ever, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, heaven, yeah, heaven, heaven)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, what we have is so much more, heaven, heaven, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, what we have is so much more, heaven)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, heaven, yeah, heaven, so much more)
What we have is much more than they could see
(So much more, so much more, yeah, baby, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
(Yeah, heaven, heaven, so much more, heaven, baby, baby)
What we have is much more than they could see
