(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo) (x2)
Some other guy may give me diamonds & pearls
The kind of things that mean so much to some girls
But in the long run, baby, it's love that really counts
Believe me, it's love that really counts
& baby, after loving you
I'm here to say that no one else will do
Who cares if you don't show me Paris or Rome?
As long as you are here, I'm happy at home
'Cause in the long run, baby, it's love that really counts
Believe me, it's love that really counts
When other loves have come & gone
This love of ours will soon go on & on
So take me in your arms, & darling
Kiss me like only you know how to do
It's love that really counts, love that really counts
I'm tellin' you
(repeat & fade):
(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
