Lyrics
Have I told you lately that I love ya?
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Could I tell you once again, somehow?
Have I told with all my heart and soul, how I adore you?
Well, darlin’, I’m telling you now
This heart would break in two if you refuse me
I’m no good without you, anyhow
Babe, have I told you lately that I love you?
Well, darlin’, I’m telling you now
Have I told you lately how I miss you
When the stars are shinin’ in the sky?
Have I told why the night’s so long when you’re not with me?
Well, darlin’, I’m tellin’ you now
Have I told you lately that I love you?
For, I’m no good without you anyhow
Oh, have told you lately that I love you?
Well, darlin’, I’m telling you now
Have I told you lately that I love ya?
