How Many Times Have I Told You? (Version 1)

Lyric: Harry Warren
Music: Harry Warren
Year: 1974
Original publisher: Four Jays Music Co., Inc.

Verse:

Poets say that love's around the corner,
Poets say that love is here to stay;
I agree with ev'ry word they've written,
But I would like to tell you in my way, dear:

Chorus:

How many times have I told you?
How many times have I said, "I love you"?
And how many times have I held you in my arms
And promised I'd always be true?
I can't believe that you ever really doubted
What I've been saying constantly.
My darling, you should know
That I'll never ever let you go,
You know you belong to me.
