[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

[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]

I 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

[Interlude]

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

[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

[Outro]

Cherish (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) I could never forget to

(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
