[Verse 1]
Holding you to me
For all the world to see
That's how I kept wishing it could be

[Verse 2]
But you found someone new
Someone who loves you, too
And I just can't help wishing it was me

[Chorus]
I always wanted you to know
I always meant to let it to show
Now, I say these things to you
Just so, you'll know I love you so

[Verse 3]
I wonder what he'll say
When he finds out some day
That you don't really mean the things you say

[Verse 4]
I'll know how he'll feel
When he finds your love's not real
I'll bet he'll be wishing he was free, free, free
Like me
[Organ Solo]

[Chorus]
I always wanted you to know
I always meant to let it to show
Now, I say these things to you
Just so, you'll know I lovе you so

[Verse 3]
Wonder what he'll say
When hе finds out some day
That you don't really mean the things you say

[Verse 4]
I'll know how he'll feel
When he finds your love's not real
I'll bet he'll be wishing he was free, free, free
Like me
