John Michael Montgomery I Can Love You Like That Lyrics
They read you Cinderella
You hoped it would come true
That one day your Prince Charming
Would come rescue you
You like romantic movies
You will never forget
The way you felt when Romeo kissed Juliet
All this time that you’ve been waiting
You don’t have to wait no more
I can love you like that
I would make you my world
Move Heaven and Earth if you were my girl
I will give you my heart
Be all that you need
Show you you’re everything that’s precious to me
If you give me a chance
I can love you like that
I never make a promise I don’t intend to keep
So when I say forever, forever’s what I mean
I’m no Casanova but I swear this much is true
I’ll be holdin’ nothing back when it comes to you
You dream of love that`s everlasting
Well baby open up your eyes
I can love you like that
I would make you my world
Move Heaven and Earth if you were my girl
I will give you my heart
Be all that you need
Show you you’re everything that’s precious to me
If you give me a chance
I can love you like that
You want tenderness-I got tenderness
And I see through to the heart of you
If you want a man who understands
You don’t have to look very far
