Lyric
When the rain’s blowing in your faceAnd the whole world is on your caseI would offer you a warm embraceTo make you feel my loveWhen the evening shadows and the stars appearAnd there is no one to dry your tearsI could hold you for a million yearsTo make you feel my loveI know you haven’t made your mind up yetBut I would never do you wrongI’ve known it from the moment that we metThere’s no doubt in my mind where you belongI’d go hungry, I’d go black and blueI’d go crawling down the avenueThere ain’t nothing that I wouldn’t doTo make you feel my love, mmStorms are raging on a rolling seaDown the highway of regretThe winds of change are blowing wild and free, yeah, huhBut you ain’t seen nothing like me yetThere ain’t nothing that I wouldn’t doGo to the ends of the earth for youMake you happy, make your dreams come trueTo make you feel my love
