I will serenade you, all along the way
I will serenade you, anyway you say
Take you to the country, I’ll take you to the shore
Show you to my garden, I know you’ll make it grow.

If you let me serenade you
You know that’s what you come for,
So that I will serenade you

And when the walls begin to fall
Can’t hold back the joy
That love will conquer all.

Every moment, every day,
If you want to hold me, I will stay
Let me serenade you, I will serenade you
If you want to hold me, I will stay
