[Chorus]
You ask how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh, my darling, like roses need rain
You ask how long I'll love you; I'll tell you true:
Until the twelfth of never, I'll still be loving you

[Bridge]
Hold me close, never let me go
Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow

[Chorus]
I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom;
I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume
I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme
Until the twelfth of never and that's a long, long time
Until the twelfth of never and that's a long, long time
