Stronger than the strongest and even more
Running deep, as deep can go
And can even turn your darkest clouds to falling snow
That's the kinda love I got for you, yeah
That's the kinda love I got for you-hoo-oo
I can't help myself
I can't help myself
Oh, I love ya
Well, I just can't help myself
Like falling water on desert sand
Making flowers grow on barren land, yeah
Ever growin', growin' long
Heaven only knows just how much it grows, ah

Baby, I just can't help myself, no
I'm playing with fire
I've lost control, yeah
Oh this lovely feeling
Burns to my very soul
Burning hot, as hot as I can go
Can't seem to help myself
Just got to let you know
That's the kinda love I got for you
