Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics:
When I’m with you I feel so small,
Right in my shell I want to crawl,
I wonder why I had to fall for you.
Why do you make my life so tough,
It seems I can’t love you enough,
You’re so heavenly.
Much too much for me.
CHORUS
I wish that I were twins,
You great big babykins
So I could love you twice as much as I do.
I’d have four loving arms to embrace you,
Four eyes to idolize you each time I face you.
With two hearts twice as true
What couldn’t four lips do?
When four ears hear you saying, “I’m yours!”
You great big babykins,
I wish that I were twins,
So I could love you twice as much as I do!
