lyrics

The first time I saw you, you turned and smiled at me
And in that precious moment I knew that we were meant to be
Then you looked into my lonely heart with your pretty eyes of blue
There's no place in this whole world I'd rather be
Than here with you.

The first time I kissed you, you held to me so tight
I could feel your heart beating on that warm soft summer's night
You told me that you loved me and I said I loved you too
There's no place in this whole world I'd rather be
Than here with you.

Chorus
If I were a wealthy man with riches untold
I would trade not one moment for all your diamonds and gold
While the stars up in the heavens twinkle like the morning dew
There's no place in this whole world I'd rather be
Than here with you.

The first time you told me that someday you'd be my bride
And hand in hand, we'd walk together until the end of time
And it made my heart so happy just to hear you say 'I do'
There's no place in this whole world I'd rather be
Than here with you.

Chorus x 2
