Will you be mine?
My darling dear, love you all the time.
I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you.
Earth angel, earth angel.
The one I adore.
Love you forever, and evermore.
I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you.
I fell for you and I knew the vision of your love, loveliness.
I hoped and I prayed that someday,
I'd be the vision of your happiness.
Earth angel, earth angel,
Please be mine.
My darling dear, love you all the time.
I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you.
I fell for you and I knew the vision of your loveliness.
I hope and I pray that someday,
I'd be the vision of your happiness.
Earth angel, earth angel,
Please be mine.
My darling dear, love you all the time.
I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you.
