I'm Gonna Love You

We were just eighteen
When we started on our own
Two scared and lonely dreamers
The day that we left home.

But Jimmy promised
To make an honest woman out of me
Workin two jobs
Just to make ends meet

Pre-chorus:

One morning he left me a note
And the tears came to my eyes
When I read what he wrote
He said

Chorus:

I don't have the money to by you a rose
And I may not have all the answers
But here's one thing I know
I'm gonna take you in my arms
And never let you go
I'm gonna love you
Like noone's done before

We were twenty-one
When I heard the doctor say
In nine more months
Our lives were gonna change

So Jimmy brought me flowers
And the birds began to sing
On the end of one rose
Was where I found the ring

Pre-Chorus:

And Heaven smiled down one me
When Jimmy got down on his knee
He said

Chorus:

If I had the money I'd buy you a star
So at night when I'm alone
I'll know just where you are
And sometimes it won't come easy
But this I know for sure
I'm gonna love you
Like noone's done before.

Bridge:

And I could not ask for more
When that baby girl was born.
