[Verse 1]
You ask how much I needed 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

[Chorus]
Hold me close
Never let me go
Hold me close
Melt my heart like April's snow

[Verse 2]
I love you till the blue bells forget to bloom
I love you till the clover has lost its perfume
I love you till the poets run out of rhymes

[Outro]
Until the twelfth of never, and that's a long, long time
Until the twelfth of never, and that's a long, long time
Until the twelfth of never, and that's a long, long time
