LYRICS from 1.01 – 1.37
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
Cause I’d miss you baby
And I don’t wanna miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I’d still miss you baby
And I don’t wanna miss a thing
Thanks so much for auditioning. We can't wait to see your video!
