Cherish - Nina Simone Sammy Lowe

Cherish is the word I use to describe

All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside

You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could

Mold you into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

Cherish is the word that more than applies

To the hope in my heart each time I realize

That I am not gonna be the one you share your dreams

That I am not gonna be the one you share your schemes

That I am not gonna be the one you share what

Seems to be the life that you could Cherish as much as I do yours

I'm beginning to think that man has never found

The words that could make you want me

That have the right amount of letters just the right sound

That could make you hear make you see

That you are driving me out of my mind

Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize

That I want you just like a thousand other girls

Who'd say they loved you with all the rest of their lies

When all they wanted was to touch your face your hands

And gaze into your eyes

Cherish is the word I use to describe

All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside

You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you

You don't know how many times I've wished that I could

Mold you into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

And I do cherish you and I do cherish you cherish is the word
