The sheet music:
Lyrics
When I embrace you
I hold the world in my caress
When I embrace you
What greater treasure can I possess?
You wonder why it is that I love you so
I’ll tell you why it is
It’s because I know that….
Chorus:
Never in a million years
Could there be another you
I would shed a million tears
If ever we were through
Never in a million moons
Could you ever be surpassed
And darling, for a million Junes
This love of ours will last
There would be no world for me
If ever we would part
Where I go, your name will be
Right on the tip of my heart
For only once in every lifetime
Someone just like you appears
Is there any greater glory
Any greater thrill, no
Never in a million years
