The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You ask me what I want
You ask me what I need
It's nothing you can buy
My heart's not ruled by greed
I don't love a diamond
Diamond's you see through
I want you to hold me
I want you to be true
Give me the gift of love
Look me in the eyes
Say I'm the one you're dreamin' of
That'd be the best surprise
Give me the gift of your sweet love
In the light of the day
In the dark of night
Like the colors of the sun
The feelings in your heart
It's all I want from you
And when the sky is dark
I'll have you beside me
Who could ask for more?
I'll just wear a smile
When you walk in the door
Give me the gift of love
Look me in the eyes
Say I'm the one you're dreamin' of
That'd be the best surprise
Give me the gift of your sweet love
In the light of the day
In the dark of night
Give me the gift of love
Look me in the eyes
Say I'm the one you're dreamin' of
That'd be the best surprise
Give me the gift of your sweet love
In the light of the day
In the dark of night
Give me the gift of love
Look me in the eyes
Say I'm the one
That'd be the best surprise
Give me the gift of your sweet love
In the light of the day
In the dark of night
Always. Oooooh
