Love Will Keep us Together Lyrics Sung by Neil Sedaka
Love, love will keep us together
Think of me, babe, whenever
Some sweet-talkin’ guy comes along
Singin’ his song
Don’t mess around, you gotta be strong
Stop, ’cause I really love ya,
Stop, ’cause I’ll be thinkin’ of ya,
Look in my heart and let love keep us together
You, you belong to me now
Ain’t gonna set you free now
When those guys start hangin’ around
Talkin’ me down
Hear with your heart and you won’t hear a sound
Oh, stop, ’cause I really love ya,
Stop, ’cause I’ll be thinkin’ of ya,
Look in my heart and let love keep us together, whatever
Young and beautiful
But someday your looks will be gone
When the others turn you off,
Who’ll be turnin’ you on? I will, I will, I will,
I will…be there to share forever
Love will keep us together
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
While others pretend,
I’ll need you now, and I’ll need you then
Just stop, ’cause I really love ya,
Stop, ’cause I’ll be thinkin’ of ya,
Look in my heart and let love keep us together, whatever
I will, I will, I will, I will…
