I love you, For Sen -ti -men -tal Rea -sons,

I hope you do be -lieve me, I'll give you my heart.

I love you, And you a -lone were mean't for me,

Please give your lov -ing heart to me, And say we'll nev -er part.

I think of you ev -'ry morn -ing, Dream of you ev -'ry night,

Dar -ling I'm nev -er lone -ly when ev -er you're in sight.

I love you, For Sen -ti -men -tal Rea -sons,

I hope you do be lieve me, I've giv -en you my heart.
