Penny Lover
Lionel Richie · Encore
oh u looked so fine
and i had a feeling
one day u'd be mine
honey u came along & captured my heart
now my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
when im all alone its u that i miss
girl a love like yours is hard to resist
oh oh oh oh oh oh
chorus;
Penny love dont u walk on by
Penny lover u're my hearts desire
tell me baby now could this be true
that i can need someone
like i need you
Nights ,warm & tender
lying next to you
girl,i surrender
what more can i do
i spent all of my life
in search of your love
now theres one more thing i'd like to say
dont u ever take your sweet love away
girl i'd do anything just pls stay
oh oh oh oh oh
chorus

coz when a man's inlove he's only got one story
that why my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
when im lost & alone its u that i miss
girl a love like yours is hard to resist
oh oh oh oh oh
