[Intro]
Cherish, cherish

[Verse 1]
So tired of broken hearts and losing at this game
Before I start this dance
I take a chance in telling you
I want more than just romance
You are my destiny
I can't let go, baby, can't you see?
Cupid, please take your aim at me

[Chorus]
Cherish the thought of always having you here by my side
Oh baby, I cherish the joy
You keep bringing it into my life
I'm always singing it, cherish your strength
You got the power to make me feel good
And baby, I perish the thought of ever leaving, I never would
Cherish, cherish

[Verse 2]
I was never satisfied with casual encounters
I can't hide my need
For two hearts that bleed with burning love
That's the way it's got to be
Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way I bet
So don't underestimate my point of view
[Chorus]
Cherish the thought of always having you here by my side
Oh baby, I cherish the joy
You keep bringing it into my life
I'm always singing it, cherish your strength
You got the power to make me feel good
And baby, I perish the thought of ever leaving, I never would

[Bridge]
Who? You! Can't get away, I won't let you
Who? You! I could never forget to
Cherish is the word I use to remind me of your love
You're givin' it
You're givin' it to me boy
Keep giving me all-all-all your joy
Give me faith
I will always cherish you
Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way I bet
So don't underestimate my point of view
Who? You! Can't get away I won't let you
Who? You! I could never forget to
Cherish is the word I use to remind me of your love

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus into Fade]
Cherish the thought (Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)
Cherish the joy (Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)
Cherish your strength (You're givin' it, you're givin' it to me boy, keep giving me all your joy)
Perish the thought (You're givin' it to me boy)
(Keep giving me all your joy)
Cherish the thought (Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)
Cherish the joy (Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)
