Lyrics
- The very moment I laid eyes on you
I knew that I had met my Waterloo
Tho’ you have tried hard to discourage me
How can you stop what was meant to be
Chorus:
You can’t stop flowers blooming in the Spring
Nor can you stop the song the robins sing
And you can’t stop me from falling in love with you
You can’t stop rivers flowing on their way
You can’t stop night from turning into day
And you can’t stop me from falling in love with you
My heart’s completely gone, what can I do, dear
I simply can’t go on, I must have you, dear
You can’t stop me from going where you are
You can’t stop something that has gone too far
And you can’t stop me from falling in love with you
- From early sunrise till the black of night
You’re on my mind, you’re never out of sight
My love keeps growing stronger day by day
With all my heart I sincerely say
