Lyrics
There are many many crazy things That will keep me loving you And with your permission May I list a few

The way you wear your hat The way you sip your tea The memory of all that No no they can't take that away from me

The way your smile just beams The way you sing off key The way you haunt my dreams No no they can't take that away from me

We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love But I'll always, always keep the memory of

The way you hold your knife The way we danced till three The way you changed my life No no they can't take that away from me No they can't take that away from me
