[English]

I've heard people say that

Too much of anything is not good for you, baby

But, I don't know about that

As many times as we've loved and

We've shared love and made love

It doesn't seem to me like it's enough

There's just not enough of it

It's just not enough

Oh, oh, babe

Oh babe

My darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love, babe

Oh, some things I can't get used to

No matter how I try

...

It's like the more you give, the more I want

And baby, that's no lie

Oh no, babe

Tell me

What can I say?

What am I gonna do?

How should I feel when everything is you?

What kind of love is this that you're givin' me?

Is it in your kiss or just because you're sweet?

Girl, all I know

Is every time you're here

I feel the change, huh

Somethin' moves

I scream your name

Look what you got me doin'

Darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love, babe

Oh, no, babe

Girl, if I could only make you see

And make you understand

Girl, your love for me is all I need

And more than I can stand

Oh well, babe

How can I explain all the things I feel?

You've given me so much, girl, you're so unreal

Still, I keep loving you, more and more each time

Girl, what am I gonna do 'cause you blowin' my mind?

I get the same old feelin'

Every time you're here

I feel the change

Somethin' moves

I scream your name

Look what you got me doin'

Darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Oh no, babe

Baby, it didn't take

All of my life to find you

But you can believe it's gonna take the rest of my life

To keep you

Oh, oh babe

...

Ah, my darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Oh, my darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

Oh, babe

Girl, I don't know, I don't know why

I can't get enough of your love, babe

Ah, darling, I

Can't get enough of your love, babe

...
