(Van Morrison)

Could you, a-would you

Um, hold me in your arms

A-show me all your charms

Or make me sad or make-a me blue



Could you love me

Like I love you-ooo

Like I love you-ooo-ooo



Could you, a-would you

Um, a-squeeze a-hold me tight

A-love me all through the night

And never ever let me go



Could you love me

Like I love you so

Like I love you so, oh



Every time I see you walkin' down my avenue

I say, Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, are you alright?

And you say, How do ya do?

Just like ya always do

And if I had ya in my arms tonight



Could you, a-would you,

Um hold, hold me oh so near

While I whisper in your ear

The sweet words you long to hear



Could you love me

Like I love you-ooo-ooo

Like I love you-ooo-ooo

Oh



(Instrumental)



Could you, a-would you

Um ho-old me oh so near

While I whisper in your ear

The sweet words you long to hear



Could you love me

Like I love you-ooo-ooo

Like I love you-ooo-ooo



Jus-jus-jus-just just like I love you

Just just, just like I love you, baby

FADES

Just, just, just like I love you
