Pure Love - Sonny James

Pure Love

Sonny James

(Jesse Hodges - Johnny Burnette, CAPITOL F4229, 1959)

Well, I'd crawl across a mean mountain high
I'd swim me a river wide
I'd dig me a hole right through the middle of the earth
Just to be by your side
If that ain't love, love, love, pure love
Somebody come along and tell me what lovin' is

Well, I'd walk across the burnin' desert sand
Just to spend one minute with you
I'd sleep on an iceberg all night long
If only I could dream of you
If that ain't love, love, love, pure love
Somebody come along and tell me what lovin' is
Pure love, well-oh-well-oh-well-oh-well

I'd be the first man to go to the moon
If you'd wanted me to try today
I wouldn't need a rocket, just a kiss from you
To take me to the Milky Way
If that ain't love, love, love, pure love
Somebody come along and tell me what lovin' is
Pure love, pure love

Well, if you were stranded on a tropical island
Way out on the ocean blue
I'd fight my way through the raging storm
Baby just to get to you
If that ain't love, love, love, pure love
Somebody come along and tell me what lovin' is
Well-oh-well-oh-well-oh
Love, love, love, pure love
Somebody come along and tell me what lovin' is
