Verse 1

Baby, it's a cold hard world out there 
Broken hearted people everywhere  
Takin' whatever love they get
I don't wanna wind up like that, so

Chorus

Baby, throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby, I don't wanna lose you yet

Lead Break

G - Em - Am - D

Verse 2

You know I love you and I know you love me 
It's everything that love's supposed to be  
But I don't wanna look up one day
And find out we let it slip away

Chorus

Baby, throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby, I don't wanna lose you yet

Lead Break

G - Em - Am - D

Bridge

I can't tell you nothin' 'bout love I guess
That you don't already know
But girl, when you're in my arms like this
I don't ever wanna let you go so

Verse 3

Baby, maybe I'm wrong but what if I'm right 
And everything's depending on us tonight 
Maybe we'll pass this way again
But honey, I don't wanna wait 'til then

Chorus

Baby, throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby, I don't wanna lose you yet

Lead Break

G - Em - Am - D
Oh, I don't wanna lose you yet

Chorus

Baby, throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
I don't wanna lose you yet
